Vettikulangara Devi Temple Cheppad, Hindu temple in Cheppad, Alappuzha district, India.

The Vettikulangara Devi Temple contains shrines dedicated to multiple deities, including Lord Mahadeva, Lord Ganesh, Lord Ayyappan, Nagaraja, and Nagayakshi.

During excavation of the Kannirasi pond, members of the Naluveettil family discovered a sacred idol that released blood upon retrieval, establishing the temple's origin.

The temple celebrates Vettikulangara Pooram in the Malayalam month of Medam with elephant processions, traditional music performances, and regional festivities.

Visitors can reach the temple via Cheppad railway station located 1.5 kilometers away or through regular bus services from Haripad and Kayamkulam stations.

The temple features distinctive Kuthiras structures that rise between 70 and 105 feet, divided into sections including Adikkoottu, Kathirakal, Edakkodaram, and Melkkoodaram.
