Karppillikkavu Sree Mahadeva Temple, Hindu temple in Manjapra village, Ernakulam district, India
The Karppillikkavu Sree Mahadeva Temple features traditional Kerala architectural elements with intricate carvings and symbols dedicated to Lord Shiva as Kirata, facing the western direction.
According to ancient texts, Kartavirya Arjuna established the temple and created a meditation cave on its northern side to connect with the divine presence of Shiva.
The temple organizes an eight-day festival in the Malayalam month of Makaram, including processions with seven elephants and performances of Panchavadhyam and Chendamelam traditional music.
Devotees can participate in daily rituals, special ceremonies during Pradhosha days, and celebrations like Thiruvathira, with regular services scheduled throughout the morning and evening hours.
A sacred tunnel reportedly extends 30 kilometers eastward from the temple well to another religious site, connecting to an area containing medicinal plants.
