Pisharikavu, Hindu temple in Koyilandi, Kerala, India
Located near Kozhikode, Pisharikavu Temple contains two shrines dedicated to Goddess Bhagavathy and Lord Shiva, featuring intricate wood carvings and mural paintings.
During ancient times, diamond merchants from the Ettuveettil family settled in Kollam and obtained land from the Samoothiri-King of Kozhikode to construct the temple.
The temple organizes an eight-day festival in the Malayala month of Meenam, presenting traditional Kerala art forms and ceremonial elephant processions.
Temple gates open daily from 5:30 AM to 12 PM and again from 5:30 PM to 8 PM, with staff communicating in Malayalam and English.
The temple houses a sacred sword called Nandhakam, which according to tradition was bestowed by goddess Sri Porkali through a dream to a devotee.
