Kadampuzha Devi Temple, Kadampuzhamandir

Remarkably, instead of an idol, the goddess is worshipped through a small hole (around 6 cm in diameter) in the sanctum—believed to be created by Lord Shiva’s arrow when he appeared as a hunter. Architecture of the Temple The temple follows simple Kerala-style architecture—no grand gopurams or gold-plated flagpoles. Built using granite, wood, brass, and laterite, with carvings and functional aesthetic designs. Adi Shankaracharya also consecrated icons of Narasimha Moorthy and the Sudarshana Chakra, along with shrines to Naga Kanya (serpent maiden) and Shasta (Sastha) on respective sides of the sanctum. The original sanctum was reconstructed in 1949, and further renovated in 1993 according to Deva Prashna guidance—with granite stone and brass-tiled roof—using traditional methods like Siddharthakam. A Thidambu (arch) marks the sacred spot above the hole and is removed only during Poomoodal to expose the divine presence How to Reach to Temple By Road: From Vettichira junction (on NH‑66), take local buses, autos, or taxis—temple is approx. 2 km from the junction Nearby towns: Valanchery, Kuttippuram, Tirur, Kottakkal (11–19 km) .
