Aralvaimozhi (or Aramboly) (Tamil: ஆரல்வாய்மொழி) is a panchayat town in Kanniyakumari District in the state of Tamil Nadu, India. It is a small village situated in southern India.
Aralvaimozhi is near the Muppandal wind farm. This farm is the largest in Asia and supplies the villagers with electricity for work.[1][2] It is well known for being the greatest source of wind energy in Asia. The farm is located near the once impoverished village of Muppandal.
Aralvaimozhi is famous for a Catholic church located in the hill of Kattadi malai where Devasahayam Pillai was martyred.
The name "Aral" was derived as it was having a fort. The remains of the fort can be seen near railway station; but neglected by both railway and archeology departments.
