Chengannur Mahadeva Temple can be easily reached from MC road. If you are travelling from tiruvalla side watch out the Rail underpass and take the road on the left immediately after the under pass and it will lead you to the temple. heard about the Unique custom - it is said that when the Bhagavathy gets her monthly periods she is shifted to a separate room, So it is believed if any ladies are facing menstrual period related problesm praying here will cure it. In this temple the Nandi (Lord Shiva's aide) is placed in an ideal location on a raised round platform as you enter the temple so it easy for people to convey their wishes to Lord Shiva by speaking into Nandi's ear.

For someone who misses this, I can only say "Go Back". An hour well spent understanding nuances of Kathakali and enjoying the performance. Lively staff and suffused with positive energy

We visited Arthunkal Basilica on the way back from kumarakom vacation. It's an historic pilgrimage centre and one of the oldest churches in India. The main church and the one built in 1561 are both well maintained and open for public to pray. A must visit if you are in this area and definitely one to explore if you have an interest in Christian history in India

The temple is an old architectural splendor and is spread over a huge area with a large pond. The temple has two gates of entry the Eastern & Western Gate. The Western Gate has lot of shops & adequate parking. The temple is famous for the " Ambalapuzzha Palpayasam ( Rice Kheer/ Rice Pudding)", which is distributed at 12 noon. The Palpayasam needs to be pre-booked or if you are lucky you can stand in queue at 10:30 am and try and get it on the same day. The temple also has a elephant permanently inside the temple premises. It is believed that Sree Guruvayoor Appan ( Deity at Guruvayoor Temple) visits the temple every day noon for the "Ambalapuzzha Palpayasam". Please Note :- Due to the present COVID-19 situation, entry only through Western Gate is allowed. Children are though allowed inside the temple premises but entry into the main sanctum sanctorum.

This remote temple is set in a beautiful forest. The building is in a typical Keralian style and shows the intricate woodwork so typical of these temples. As it is dedicated to to Snake King (God?) there is an extraordinary display of snake art - the Cobra being the snake. There are carvings and painted reliefs but most incredible are the thousands ( supposedly, 30,000) of stone images of Cobras. The grounds of the temple are beautiful and warrant a long stroll to the Kali temple. There were no more than half a dozen other visitors when we were there so the quietness was wonderful.
