particularly sasyasamala, darkly beautiful with vegetation. The Pampa River flows through
here, adding to the scenic beauty. The land is extremely fertile and anything grows here
at the more touch of human hand. With crops grown even on hillsides which form a
Picturesque backdrop, the whole place looks a roof garden. Chengannur in Alleppey district is also on the ra map, being the fourth station from Kottayam. A distance of 35 km on the Ernakulam-Quilon section of the Southern Railway. In the heart of this beautiful town is the famous Chengannur Bhagavati temple. The main central road linking Trivandrum with Alwaye runs on the West Side of this temple where an arch proclaims it as Mahadeva temple. The shrine is dedicated to both Parvati (facing west) and Parameswara (facing east) though it is better known for the Goddess.
