Thiruvatta Mahadeva Temple, Hindu temple in Pathanamthitta district, India
Located on the banks of the Manimalayar river, the Thiruvatta Mahadeva Temple features granite walls topped with copper plates and traditional Kerala architectural elements.
The temple traces its origins to the Second Chera dynasty rule of Kulasekhara Perumals, with references found in the ancient Vazhappally copper plate inscriptions.
The temple contains multiple sacred spaces, including a self-contained Shiva lingam in the main shrine and additional shrines within the limestone-built Nalambalam quadrangle.
The temple complex includes a rectangular namaskara mandapom on the east side of the main shrine, providing space for devotees to perform their religious practices.
During monsoon seasons, water fills the main sanctum, leading to the performance of the specific Arattu abhishekam ritual dedicated to Thiruvata Thevar.
