How To Reach Vazhappally Sree Mahadeva Temple
Kottayam, Kerala, India
Ancient Splendor: The Vazhappally Sree Mahadeva Temple is a historic shrine located near Changanassery, believed to be over 1000 years old. It is one of the 108 Shiva temples established by Lord Parasurama and holds immense spiritual significance. The temple is famous for its "Vazhappally Inscriptio n", the oldest written record in the Malayalam language dating back to the 9th century. The presiding deity is Lord Shiva, worshipped in the form of a majestic Lingam. The temple complex is unique because it houses two "Nalambalams" and two flag-masts, which is rare in Kerala. The architecture features incredible wood carvings that depict figurines from various Hindu epics. The atmosphere is deeply meditative, surrounded by traditional Kerala homes and greenery. It was once a prominent center under the Second Chera dynasty and later the Thekkumkoor kings. The temple has survived numerous wars and historical shifts, remaining a pillar of faith for the local community. The "Daru Silpas" (wood sculptures) here are considered some of the finest examples of 17th-century craftsmanship. Visitors are drawn to its serene environment and the rhythmic daily rituals. The temple also has a sub-shrine for Lord Ganesha and Lord Sastha. The daily "Sreebali" procession is a sight of traditional grandeur. It is a must-visit for anyone interested in the intersection of history, linguistics, and temple art. The temple's legacy is preserved by the Travancore Devaswom Board today.
