A temple built for the use of Pandavas during their stay in here

My earlier blog post was about Arthanaeeswar temple in the small village called Arakkuparamba. There is a anther templei n the next village called mattarakal.   The Shiva Vishnu temple is  situated amongst  groves of banana araicanuts, coconuts etc. The villagers say that the Shiva lingam was built for the pandavas to offer their prayers.  This makes the temple also to be an ancient one dating back to Mahabharata times.   Of course the current temple premises is built only in the last century.

3000 year old arthaneeswar temple in kerala

Had the great fortune to visit this small village called Arakkuparamba named after the arakku palace built for Pandavas in here.  This place is situated in the Peruthalmanna Taluk, Kerala close to the town called Karikalathani .   It is believed that the Famed Arakku palace was built here during the Mahabharatha times,   which was meant to kill the Pandavas.  When they came to know the nature of the palace made up of easily combustible material and the plot to set Kunti devi and the 5 brothers, escaped through an underground tunnel to safety.   The villagers say that even today we can find few stones that are here which can catch fire just like that which they say goes to prove the existence of pandavas in here.  (I didnt see them so cannot say anything about it) There is a small temple here in which there is a siva lingam which is split in the middle.   This temple is being reconstructed currently after a teacher found the remnants ...
