Sri Laxmi Venkatesh Temple, Hindu temple in Kanhangad, Kerala, India
The temple structure contains multiple shrines dedicated to deities including Venkateswara, Mahamaya, Garuda, Ganesha, Mahalaxmi, Hanuman, and Rama with Sita and Lakshmana.
The installation of the main deity took place on Akshaya Trithiya in 1865, following ceremonies initiated by Srimad Bhuvanendra Thirtha Swamiji from Kashi Mutt.
The temple functions as the central religious institution for Gowda Saraswatha Brahmins in the Kasargod district, maintaining traditional Hindu practices and ceremonies.
Devotees gather at the temple for three major celebrations throughout the year: Navarathri, Karthik Pournami, and Bhajana Sapthaha.
Local families known as Chowguli provided both the land and labor for the temple construction, with the Subraya Kamath family serving as Muli oracles.
