Karikkakom Devi Temple, Hindu temple in Thiruvananthapuram district, India.
The Karikkakom Devi Temple features a main shrine with a Panchaloha idol of Goddess Karikkakathamma and two adjacent sanctums for different deity forms.
During the Travancore dynasty, the temple functioned as a judicial center where accused individuals declared their innocence by offering 21 coins at Raktha Chamundi shrine.
Women prepare Pongala, a mixture of rice, jaggery, ghee, and coconut in earthen pots as offerings to the goddess during the annual festival.
The temple opens daily in two sessions, from 5:00 AM to 11:30 AM and again from 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM, with free admission for visitors.
The temple houses three manifestations of Goddess Chamundi: Maha Chamundi in a calm state, Raktha Chamundi in fierce form, and Bala Chamundi as child form.
