Thiruppalai is an area situated in the north of Madurai, Tamil Nadu, India. Parts of the village are included in Samayanallur constituency and Madurai constituency. In 2011, its village panchayat was dissolved and merged with Madurai Corporation. The main occupation of this village is farming but due to urbanization, some of the agricultural land is being sold for non-agricultural purposes.
