One of the oldest temple in Calicut. The temple built during the 14th century. The temple and beside the pond good looking.
Located within the city, yet providing a peaceful atmosphere. Non-Hindus are not allowed. Its a must visit place for historically interested people and believers.

A peaceful place with good vibes 💯. Tali temple is located in Calicut and I would say visit it during early morning as it will be less crowded.
The samorin school and the pond is an iconic places of Kozhikkode. A perfect place for a morning walk.

Very pleasant and old temple. I wished today 14.04.2022 and looks like from today they have some special offerings to the god. Posted photos with details for your reference. Nearby Pond is also very well maintained. Entry allowed in dhoti and shirt less. in case if you don’t have or forgot dhoti, you can get one near the temple.

Temple carvings are so beautiful. Lovely darshan.

We came to Calicut to visit our cousin. Tali temple is famous for most oldest temple in Calicut. The temple is near my cousin home in chalapuram. The temple has strict rule over the dress code. Men should wear dhoti. pants and jeans are strictly prohibited. Non Hindus are not allowed is written there. The temple premises are well maintained and murals on the walls show our artists calibre in the olden times. The ambience of silence inside the temple just provides a stronger bond and feeling with the lord.
Highly recommended

Refreshing experience in devotional ambience

Its in the city calicut city near to palayam market , heavy rush area, parking is limitted, but the temple give you a feel . There is a big pond near to the temple , also there is govt school near to it. Only dhothi is allowed , no pants or lunki etc

This temple is must visit. The temple is beautiful, symbolic and has many intricate and colourful wall art work which narrates stories. I visited this temple with my family and went there around 10.30 am during that time Puja is held and it is a spiritual experience. I would suggest to attend the Puja if you visit this temple, you'll learn about the culture.

Few things to keep in mind,
1. Temple timings, morning 4.30 am - 11am
Evening 5pm - 8pm
2. Men have to go bare chested with mundu (malayali style dhoti - draped around waist)on. Formal shirt trouser are not allowed for men. Don't worry if you don't have dhoti there's a shop adjacent to the temple where you can buy one.

Happy visiting.
