I am here at an occasion of Thrissur Pooram...on year 2023.. Paramekkavu Bagavathi Temple is one of the largest Bagavathi temples in Kerala.. Which is located in Thrissur City. Sakthan Thampuran ordained the temples into two groups, namely "Paramekkavu side" and "Thiruvambady side" for Thrissur Pooram...which is the biggest festival in South India. The temple has a wonderful temple structure, this temple is considered to be more than 1000 years old....

Divine darshan of Devi. Ufff .. how gorgeous she is. I even went for evening diparadhana. It's so good to feel the energy and beauty.

Un temple dedie a Bhagavati et Durga. L idole principale ressemble beaucoup a celle de Kolloguntur. Jolies reliefs en dore sur les piliers avec les avatars de Vishnu. Tres joli et spirituel endroit

Nice temple I wants to add an information to the visitors - try to avoid pants during inside visiting time

This temple of Bhagavathi which is considered a sacred place with a dress code ( sari for women and Dhoti and upper garment for men). Men without a dhoti can go up to ,a certain place and get glimpse of the presiding deity. this is considered one of vthe very important and spiritual places of Thrissur which is the cultural capital of Kerala. It will be a treat to the eye and ears to watch 15 bedecked elephants standing to the tunes of "pancha vadyam " ( Traditional musical galore) inside the temple complex later move on to face 15 bedecked elephants of another temple in a nearby ground exchanging colorful Umbrellas during the annual Pooram Festival which comes in April -May every year Credit : TripAdvisor !
