Karikkakom Sri Chamundi Temple

A Divine Oasis of Tranquility - Karikkakom Sri Chamundi Temple

Nestled amidst the lush greenery of Trivandrum, Karikkakom Sri Chamundi Temple is a true gem that offers a divine experience for seekers of spiritual solace. During my recent visit, I was captivated by the serene ambiance and the rich cultural heritage that this temple exudes.

The presiding deity, Goddess Chamundi, is revered for her benevolence and protective powers. The sanctum sanctorum is a sanctified space where devotees can offer their prayers and seek blessings. The priests, dressed in traditional attire, conduct rituals with utmost reverence, adding to the spiritual ambiance.

The temple complex is well-maintained, with clean surroundings and helpful staff. The lush gardens surrounding the temple offer a peaceful retreat for contemplation and meditation. It's an ideal place for individuals seeking a break from the hustle and bustle of daily life.

Spacious and old temple
Very devotional
Mangoes trees are more than 10 decades of age.

Felt very positive on this temple visit. Paid and open both other doors as per request. It was divine.
Must visit temple.

Visited this temple as part of our Sabarimala trip. Was not able to spend much time in the temple.

This is a 600 year Hindu temple which is an incarnation of Goddess Chamundi. One thing noticeable about this temple is that Chamundi Devi is worshiped here in three different forms: Maha Chamundi, Raktha Chamundi, and Bala Chamundi. During the period of King's rule this temple was the venue for imparting justice and truth. Truth and justice were tested on oath and solemnization and the punishments meted out accordingly.

MATA Sri Chamundi temple is a blessed divine temple to visit.The Pujaries performing rituals at this temple makes devotees really happy and sri Chamundeshwari bless all the devotees with her kindness.very divine place to visit and get blessing.

One temple with a lot of footprint during the navratri festive season in Trivandrum.

There is a lot of parking space compared to other temples in the area.

Nice and tranquil devi darshanam and can offer prayers easily. Parking is abundant and can park the car close to the temple, worship the main deity as well as the other deities around the temple and walk back to the car in 25 minutes during morning hours. No rushing or pushing. Even during evenings also, there is crowd but it is reasonable only .
