Description:
The presiding deity in
this temple is Lord Ayyappa. This is a small
temple. There is no roof in this temple. Its
believed that Lord Ayyappa like to sit and enjoy
both rain and sun heat. Goddess Badhrakali and
Nagas are the sub deities here. On every malayalam
month 1st , there is special pooja in this temple.
Long
ago this temple was in Cheruppalassery village .
When the village was destructed , the temple was
handed over to 'Nedungathirippadu'. After that 'Samoothiri'
won over him and this temple became his property.
From this all we can understand its old age. |
