Hotels Near Ambalappuzha Sree Krishna Temple
Alleppey , Kerala, India
The Ambalappuzha Sree Krishna Temple is one of the most revered Hindu temples in Kerala, dedicated to Lord Krishna, worshipped here in the form of Parthasarathy (the charioteer of Arjuna, as seen in the epic Mahabharata). The idol holds a whip in his right hand and a sacred conch in his left, a uniq ue representation compared to other Krishna temples. Believed to have been built between the 15th and 17th centuries by the local ruler Chembakassery Thampuran, the temple is an exemplary display of traditional Kerala architectural style. Its spiritual significance is deeply rooted in local legend and history. One of the most famous aspects is the daily offering of Palpayasam, a sweet milk pudding. A popular legend linked to this offering involves Lord Krishna himself, who appeared as a sage and challenged the king to a game of chess, resulting in a debt of rice grains that could only be repaid by serving this Payasam to pilgrims daily for eternity. The temple is also believed to have a direct spiritual connection with the famous Guruvayoor Temple in Thrissur, with the idol of Lord Krishna from Guruvayoor having been temporarily housed here for safekeeping during a time of threat from Tipu Sultan. This temple is considered one of the seven great Vaishnava temples of Travancore and holds immense cultural and religious importance for devotees across South India. The inner walls of the garbha griha (sanctum sanctorum) are adorned with exquisite murals, notably the Dasavatara (ten incarnations of Lord Vishnu), which are masterpieces of Kerala art. A visit here offers a profound spiritual and cultural experience.
