Chowalloor Siva Temple, Ancient Hindu temple in Thrissur district, India

The Chowalloor Siva Temple features a round sanctum sanctorum with two floors, crowned by a copper roof and golden dam at the top.

The temple, established approximately 1000 years ago, stands as one of the 108 Shivalayas where the primary deity manifested through a devotee's umbrella.

The temple performs three daily pujas dedicated to Lord Shiva, with special ceremonies during the Shivaratri festival and Ashtami Rohini celebrations.

Located three kilometers from Guruvayur Sri Krishna Temple, visitors can reach the temple grounds using local auto-rickshaws and taxi services.

Within the temple, the Swayambhoo idol of Shiva faces west while Goddess Parvati faces east, directing divine blessings across all directions.
