Trichambaram temple is in Taliparamba of Kannur District. Main deity is Sree Krishna after the Kamsavadham (after the killing of Kamsa the King and uncle of Sreekrishna).  Krishna is supposed to be very hungry and so Nivedhyam (feeding) is done soon after opening the door of the shrine. There is an old saying that one should open the sanctum sanctorum with food in one hand. In the olden days rice of previous day was offered. After feeding Abhishekam is done. Since Trichambaram Sreekrishna sits in Raudra style (ferocious) it is believed that on should not worship him during dawn. The Bali bimbam more in the temple is of Child Krishna. It is also believed that Parasurama did the installation and suggested the poojas, festival styles, etc. It is believed that to reduce the seriousness of Siva of Taliparamba Raja Rajeswara temple this Krishna is placed here, facing east with three poojas daily. Kambrathillam have the rights of the thantries. Sub deity Vishak Senan is facing south. The famous saint Sambaran has done 'Thapassu (meditation) in this temple and thus the name "Trichambaram' came to this temple. Festival is from 22nd of Kumbam to 6th of Meenam. No elephants are allowed for the festival. Balaraman from Mazhoor temple will come here on Kumbam 22nd. On his way he should not see any elephants. Till Meenam 2nd there will be 'thidambu dance' and race in Pookothu gate. On the 4th day there is a procession around the village, on 5th Arattu in the Chira (small pond), on 6 the brothers Krishna and Balarama join together and say farewell. This scene is made touching by repeated meetings and farewells accompanied by sorrowful musical instruments. At last by showing milk Krishna will be attracted back to the temple. This is a rare proceeding which is not seen in any other temple. It is believed that Devaki and Vasudev (parents of Krishna and Balarama) come to attend this festival.
