  CHENGANNUR - BHAGAWATHI AMBALAM

THE TEMPLE:

This sacred temple built on a vast six-acre land is deemed one of the biggest of its kind by Kerala standards. It has a massive prakara and a tall three tiered tower over the gateway, facing east and another on the west. Its architectural beauty is of high order and detains the visitors with its beauty. The circular Sri Koil enshrining the images of Lord Siva in the front, facing the east and Mother Pavathi facing west, just behind in the same garbha-griha but separated by a wall with passage. This is one of the distinctive features of the temple that indeed marks it out from the rest of the temples found anywhere in India.
