Shree Ayyappa Mandir

Sree Ayyppa Mandir stands on a picturesque location at Shreenagar. The steep steps that lead to the temple are quite taxing to climb. They also take us to the the beautiful forest and the mountain. For an Ayyappa devotee, the location and the surroundings are reminiscent of a mini Sabarimala, the abode of Lord Ayyappa.

I believe that there are a number of Malayalees who could share with us more about this temple - its origin, history, myths, beliefs, festival etc.. If they contribute their valuable inputs, in the comments section, this entry will become a comprehensive source of information about this temple for anyone keen to know.

I have some pictures of the last year's festival.
