Thirunavaya Kerala

Much of Kerala is enveloped by a heritage and culture that have been enriched by a history which dates back to ages immemorial. One of these is the famous Thirunavaya Temple, Malappuram, one of the most revered temples of Kerala. Dedicated to Lord Vishnu, the temple is a must-visit while on a tour to Kerala.

Located on the banks of the River Bharathapuzha, the ancient Thirunavaya Temple is one of the major tourist attractions of Malappuram, where the history of Kerala has been written over the centuries. The soft murmur of the Bharathapuzha is even today a mute witness to the political importance of the Thirunavaya Temple, Malappuram, where a grand assembly of all the influential rulers of Kerala was held once every 12 years. Thus, if you are planning a holiday in Kerala, make sure you include a tour to Thirunavaya Temple, Malappuram as a major part of your itinerary to Kerala.
