Vadeshwaram Temple, Hindu temple in Aroli, Kannur district, India.
Located on the Keecheri hill, Vadeshwaram Temple features traditional Kerala architectural elements with intricate stone carvings and detailed sculptural work throughout the structure.
The temple originated approximately 1500 years ago during the reign of Mushika king Vatukavarma, as documented in the historical text Mushikavamsa Mahakavya.
The temple maintains daily rituals dedicated to Lord Shiva as Vadeshwarathappan, along with ceremonies for deities Umamaheswara, Shasta, Dakshinamurthy, and Kirathamurthy.
The temple stands 150 meters east of the National Highway, with Calicut International Airport providing the nearest air connection for visitors.
The temple exhibits an Ashtadala eight-petalled architectural design in its sanctum sanctorum, a structural pattern not found in other Indian temples.
