Valayanad Devi Temple, Hindu temple in Kozhikode, India

The Valayanad Devi Temple features four directional gopurams and contains multiple sacred idols within its Dravidian architectural structure near Kozhikode in Kerala.

The temple originated in the 14th century when the Zamorin kings established it after seeking divine intervention during conflicts with Valluvakkonathiri.

The temple priests from the Pidarar Brahmin community perform specific rituals according to Saktheya traditions, including non-vegetarian offerings to the deity.

The temple opens twice daily, with morning ceremonies starting at 5:00 AM and evening ceremonies beginning at 5:30 PM for devotees to participate.

The sanctum houses a Sreechakra designed by Sivayogi Thayyavur Sivasankar, which represents the permanent residence of the goddess Bhagavathy.
