GURUVAYUR - MAHADEV AMBALAM

Although the sacred icon of Lord Krishna was installed by Guru and Vayu at the instance of Udhava after the niryana of Krishna Bhagawan at the end of Dwapara yuga, there was dwelling at the end of the lake, Lord Siva with Uma long before this auspicious occasion occurred. There lies now at the very same spot a small and sublime shrine enshrining a Sivalinga, and is visited by an unending streams of devotees. This Saivate shrine lying in the heart of Vaishnava Kshetra reflects the ineffable glory of Siva and his Omnicompassion. Visiting is a MUST and worshipping makes the living holiest, aver the ardent theists.

It is near the famous Krishna temple in the heart of Guruvayur.
