Can I add a sequence of markers on a Folium map?

Suppose I had a list, or pandas series, or latitude longitude pairs. With Folium, I can plot markers for a single pair of coordinates using 

coords = [46.8354, -121.7325]
map_4 = folium.Map(location=[46.8527, -121.7649], tiles='Stamen Terrain',
                   zoom_start=13)
folium.Marker(location=coords).add_to(map_4)

But when I try to pass a list of list, nothing is plotted. I could loop through a list of lists and plot the markers, but I am wondering if I can just pass an argument and have several markers plotted.

Try the following, which doesn't need FeatureGroup, and achieves (i) multiple markers, (ii) custom icon for each markers simultaneously.

for index, row in data.iterrows():
    custom_icon = folium.features.CustomIcon('path/to/image',icon_size=(50, 50))
    folium.Marker([row['data'],row['data']],icon=custom_icon).add_to(map)

I create a function to add an individual points and then use DataFrame.apply() to run every row through the function.

Here is are some examples in a notebook.

You can do in this way:

map = folium.Map(location = [lat, lng], zoom_start = 4, tiles = "Mapbox bright")
feature_group = folium.FeatureGroup("Locations")

for lat, lng, name in zip(lat_lst, lng_lst, name_lst):
    feature_group.add_child(folium.Marker(location=[lat,lon],popup=name))

map.add_child(feature_group)

You can also create an html file from it to see whether markers are been added or not

map.save(outfile = "test.html")

Now open the test.html file in browser and check the markers
