This review is less about this Temple and more about an experience of the place. It is a beautiful place to be for people looking for visiting Lord Vadakkumnathan. Oh my god, what a wonderful place.. You should definitely go there.. all travelling facilities are available here, so no worries.. Overall, it is a very neat and clean place, very calm atmosphere.. 👍🏻👍🏻 I want to say again that you should definitely visit here.. thank you 🥰

A big complex of three core temples, and many other shrines around it on a large park on top of a scenic hillock. Shiva as Vadakkunnathan is the primary deity and He faces west here. He is in the form of a linga manifested by layers of solid Ghee. Hood of a multiheaded Cobra hovers over Him. When the deity is decorated with gold cladding, the sight is so beautiful and divine. Right behind this sanctum is the shrine of Parvathi, Shiva's consort, facing east. Very beautiful looking deity. Next shrine is for Ganapathi, facing east. Next big shrine is for Shankarnarayana, a dual image of Shiva and Vishnu. The left half of the idol is female depicting Vishnu as Mohini. This beautiful deity faces west. The third big shrine is for Sri Rama, standing majestically with His bow on His left hand. Outside this main temple, around it on the parikrama, there are shrines for Krishna, Ayyappa, Parasurama, Adhi Shakara and many more. The walkway around the temple, by itself is a very pleasant one.

I have been to Vadakkumnathan temple couple of times. All the times I was mesmerised by the architecture and the old world beauty. Temple is being maintained pristine with beautiful lawns and trees. Need to visit if you are nearby Thrissur. Gives peace and tranquility.

I recently visited Vadakkumnatha Temple in Thrissur and was overwhelmed with the peace and sense of serenity the temple emanates. From the moment you enter the temple complex, you can feel the positive energy the place has. The whole atmosphere of the temple is filled with respect and reverence and the architecture of the temple is beautiful with ornate carvings and sculptures. The temple has a large number of devotees who come to seek blessings from the presiding deity and the priests are very knowledgeable and helpful. Overall, it was a great experience and I highly recommend visiting this temple if you are in Thrissur.

Such a heavenly place with great old architecture. Un imaginable and shows how kings have more importance to divinity and divine forces than all. Must visit place to experience the grace of lord Shiva.

Vadakkunathan temple is one of the most famous and oldest temple located in the heart of Thrissur Nice ambience You can feel the positivity when you go there. Place with big round ground outside the temple. I suggest go in the evening.

Pride of Kerala, unbelievable that such a historic temple is well located in the heart of the city. Thrissur district is known in the name of this temple and it's ground. It's calm and quiet inside the temple premises. Easily reachable via bus and train. Railway station and transport bus stand is nearby (approx 1km) . Lord Siva is the deity. Huge parking space available.

Beautiful temple to visit. You can reach here easily by local buses but be informed that local private buses stop operation as early as 8 PM in thrissur. One of the beautiful landscapes too. Don't forget to buy prasadan ghee.

An absolute must visit temple. It’s a very big temple complex with greenery all around. Just a look at the gaint trees will make you aware of the temple’s antiquity. The temple is one of the finest examples of Malabar architecture and awe inspiring murals painted with vegetable colours. We can easily spend a couple of hours looking at the murals depicting various ‘Puranas’. Don’t miss the evening ‘Arti’ (soon after sunset) and morning 4.15 AM darshan where Sri Wadakkunathan abhishekam with ghee is performed. I pray that I visit this temple again and again🙏

Photography inside the temple is strictly prohibited. Managed to take a video out of the temple.

Ah, this temple!! One of the best maintained Shiva temples in India, I'd deem. Also you get great vibes in the temple. Make sure to visit around 8 pm when they do special Pooja before closing the temple.

Very calm and and quiet temple 😍🫶 cooling climate around temple.. Beautiful temple having ancient art works inside the temple, phorography prohibited in nalambalam ( inside temple ), Calm and cooling climate..

Entry fee Rs.50 Just easy trek down to enjoy the waterfalls Has some shop on the way to waterfalls Bought water bottle for Rs.25 price was charged above MRP but subsequently refunded Rs.10 on return of same empty bottle on exit gate

One of the best and beautiful waterfalls in South India. View is good especially in monsoon 🌦️season. From entrance top view its around 1kms walk and if you want to view from down hill it will take another 1km down trek. It's been a popular location for movies🎥 also. The movies Ravan and Bahubali are shoot here.

Its amazing waterfalls. One can get amazing view with minimal walk. Entry fee is 50/head. It takes only 10 min to reach foot of waterfall. Only 5 min required to reach top of the waterfall.

Large area, not too crowded. People can bath on upper side of water fall area. You can't go near water fall area. There is a way to down area of waterfall. Keep water bottles with you. There are some shops inside the area. And entry is not free. One time visit is must.

Athirapally falls, also know as the Niagara Falls of India, is a must visit place for nature lovers. The majestic Athirapally falls in Kerala is 80-feet high and 330-feet wide. This waterfall is one of the best places to capture a real sense of splendid beauty and is a treat to the eyes, especially during the monsoon season.

Neat and clean place . Parking space is available. Tickets cost 50 for adults, for car + 30, a must visit place . After 5 pm the entrance to the bottom of the water falls will be closed.

You have to come down a bit to reach the foot from where the view is breathtaking. Aged folks and people with lower back or leg issues may find it difficult hence need to be aware before taking the hike.

When I visited this remarkable place on a weekend, I was astounded by the sheer beauty of the waterfalls. However, it was quite crowded, which is to be expected given its popularity. To ensure a hassle-free experience, I discovered that there is a convenient clock room available where we can securely store our belongings for a nominal fee of Rs. 5. Moreover, I highly recommend wearing shoes or sandals with excellent grip when exploring this enchanting location. This precaution will not only enhance your safety but also allow you to fully immerse yourself in the awe-inspiring surroundings.

We visited athirapilly waterfalls during our last vacation. It was rainy season. We have to get entry tickets, Rs.50 per head. There is cloak room to keep helmet and bags, Rs 5 per piece. The view and the ambiance is too good. A romantic place.

Entry fees are 50 per person. There is a walk like 200 meters to reach the top of the falls and 500-600 meters to reach the down of the falls. Well maintained.

I was excited to visit this place. Beautiful picturesque. Found there wide falls coming down which was spectacular to see. I visited 1 week ago and was wondering how beautiful it becomes in the monsoon! Time just passed away and I was late with my itinerary. One thing to remember, beware of monkeys at this place - they just snatch away food items if once noticed !

Well managed property with a great view. You can sit for long and enjoy the view as much you want. Recently kerala government started an initiative to trek through the other side of the falls, that is also good experience... It will take you 2 days. If you visit this place then my suggestion is to start early and cover waterfalls and leave to sholayar dam and return before 6 -8 pm... Otherwise you may find a place to stay

Great water falls in Thrissur District of Kerala. If your are planning tour and travel to Ernakulam or Thrissur then must visit this place. Can spend 2-3 hrs here. Best waterfalls I have ever seen. Simply awesome. Enjoyed here. This place is in forest reserve area.

Mesmerising beauty of this place is more beautiful 🤩 then you saw in movies 🎥. Reaching there is itself a fun. From the gate it self you have to walk through a trail and will not get the proper glimpse until you reach on top or bottom. You will only able to hear water fall sound. On the top you can enjoy the water and play in it. You can stay in water and enjoy it like a water park always bring back my inner kid out. On the bottom you can get the full view of fall. Recommendations - 1. Full day, 2. comfortable clothing 3. Extra pair of clothes 4. Stay hydrated 5. Go down first enjoy the view later come up relax and dip in a water.

It is one of the best waterfalls in India. The view from the bottom is the best. The place holds such a natural beauty. The way towards it is also really beautiful..

Visited this falls at the right time - just when the monsoon in Kerala is drawing to a close. The second half of July to mid of August is the right time to visit this falls. Amazing scenic beauty; one should not miss wonderful experience. One should walk down to the foot of the waterfalls to enjoy.

The small hike to the bottom of the falls added an adventurous touch, making the visit even more memorable. If you're looking for a perfect blend of natural beauty and a touch of adventure, Athirappilly Waterfalls is a must-visit destination. The stunning scenery will leave you mesmerized!

This falls comes to light for tourism after the pan world movie called BAAHUBALI, where the falls shown in this movie were captured here. The flow of water was quite good it's clear. But they don't allow people into the water.

Well maintained and guards were there to protect us from entering into dangerous sites. Try to be there during evening time, otherwise the blistering sun will make you tired. Try not to avoid the downward portion of the waterfall, you can see the complete beauty of this waterfall from that position. Take care of small children, some rocks can hurt them.

Great place, crowded but peaceful if you go Little away from the crowd. You can go into water but only up to a certain extent. The view from the bottom is great.

Amazing experience! A wonderful way to spend the day.Absolutely stunning views, one of the most beautiful waterfall in Kerala

1. Pls Keep in mind you need to trek a little in humidity so take 2 water with you must. 2. You can take bath the water stream flows in between the path. 3. Down there is no place to bath , only you can take photos and videos. A guard 💂 will watch you every time. 4. Only cash will be accepted on some shops so take some cash.

Beautiful water falls Even in summer also it’s looks beautiful To go down you have walk for 1 km from top It open at 8 clock .

Majestic- if you visit during the right season and right time. There are various spots, most are pictures ( but a bit dangerous). If you visit during peak monsoon you shall see a completely different side (some spots remains close due to large volume of waters). Ideal time to visit would be August- September.

Excellent water fall. During August month it looks like a mini Niagara. Trekking is very challenging towards the water fall. It’s paved, yet not for the feeble. Rs 200 for entry.

One of my dream place in India. It’s mesmerising. From the entry with vehicle fee you have to pay and park the car beside the road as there is no particular parking. And take the entry ticket again for falls entry. From there it’s just 10-15 walkable distance for top view. Carry water bottle along with you and return the empty bottle in entry as they will give you 10 rupee refund. Enjoy the top view for a while and start trek to the down. If you are aged or handicap or having breathing issue do not take risk and stay in the upside as we need to walk inside the forest around 30 mins in mud. As it’s a orange alert when we enter, they don’t allow us to go near to the water fall. If you visit after February, you can play in the water due to water flow will be less. If you want to see the water flow then best time to visit is from June to December. You will be lost for a while in nature for sure.

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….

Had really embarassing experience in this temple due to harsh behaviour of temple management towards devotees, I'm proud that tamilnadu temples nd management treat devotees far better than kerala temples, in ancient times devotees want to remove shirt to enter temple so that gurukkals will find out whether they wear Poonal or they are from upper castes so that they allowed near to god statue, but in modern days even after entering in 2020s they are still following this tradition by forcing devotees to remove the shirt nd forcing them to wear vesti to enter the temple is definitely not a healthy way to receive the devotees whom is coming with bhakthi.. P.S - god is common for everyone not just restricted for kerala upper caste peoples & proud to be a tamilan so that they treat devotees in better way.

Bhagavathi Matha Temple. Very divine place and must visit temple. Dress code is compulsory. Must visit temple while in Thrissur.

Powerful deity. Divine place. All rituals followed with out skipping. Feel blessed after visiting this Devi temple.

I went when there was no crowd. Was standing in front of Krishna for a long time. Filled my heart with purity and love by just looking at beautiful little Krishna. Just love nothing much to say.

An amazing temple of Lord Krishna. The temple is adequately large. Great feeling after watching the god during evening harathi time.

Beautiful Temple Krishna. Calm and peaceful ambience.

Blissful experience of taking darshan of Lord Krishna in Balagopal form. Right next to Lord Krishnas Deity, is a beautiful Deity of Durga Devi or Vaishnavi, Sister of Lord Krishna. Apart from this, there is a place for Lord Sasthavu and Lord Ganeshji. There is a nice hall were Bhagavada Katha/discourses/kirtans are conducted. Would love to see more discourses and programs and hope it becomes free from government control and regains it status as a centre for learning and education in spiritual studies.

Lovable divine place.. do not miss the seeveli - elephant bows in front of Krishna and goes three rounds around the temple at 10.30am everyday.. viewing Krishna with smiling face itself will bring happiness within us.

Temple having ancient Kerala architecture style; The Thiruvambady Krishna Temple in Thrissur is a lovely spot, known for its beauty and calm vibes. It's a peaceful place to visit. With its rich history and peaceful feel, it's definitely worth checking out when you're in Kerala.

"I recently visited Thiruvambady Krishna Temple in Thrissur, and it was an incredible spiritual experience. The temple's beautiful architecture and serene atmosphere immediately put me at ease, and I felt a deep sense of peace and spirituality. The temple's main deity, Lord Krishna, was beautifully adorned and presented, and the temple priests were welcoming and knowledgeable. They guided me through the rituals and traditions of the temple, which enhanced my overall spiritual experience. The temple is known for its famous Thrissur Pooram festival, which is a unique and awe-inspiring experience that showcases the temple's cultural and spiritual significance. The festival is a must-visit for anyone who is in the area during that time of the year. The cleanliness and organization of the temple were highly commendable, and the staff's dedication to maintaining the temple premises' hygiene is highly appreciated. Overall, I highly recommend Thiruvambady Krishna Temple to anyone seeking a spiritual and cultural experience in Thrissur. The temple's peaceful and serene atmosphere, combined with its stunning architecture and rich cultural history, make it a truly unique and fulfilling destination. I am grateful for the opportunity to visit this wonderful temple and will surely visit again."
