Thanikkudam Bhagavathi Temple, Hindu temple in Thrissur district, India
The Thanikkudam Bhagavathi Temple stands on the banks of Puzhakkal River, featuring traditional Kerala architectural elements and three sacred trees within its complex.
The temple's establishment in the 19th century resulted from conflicts between Brahmins and Nairs regarding the representation of the goddess Bhadrakali.
Devotees gather at the temple to worship Goddess Bhadrakali in the form of Nanadurga, with the principal deity also known as Vana Durga or Thanikkudathamma.
The temple lies 10 kilometers from Thrissur railway station, with regular bus services operating from Vadakke bus stand to reach the religious site.
During the annual Arattu ceremony, the monsoon floods enter the main sanctum, completely submerging the deity idol while devotees participate in water rituals.
