Sree Vishveshwara Temple, located in West Yakkara, Palakkad, Kerala, is a renowned Hindu temple devoted to Lord Shiva, the Lord of the World. Established by the esteemed Sri Narayana Guru in the early 1900s, it stands as one of Palakkad's oldest temples. This sacred temple, under the administration of priests from the Ezhava caste, serves as a focal point for various local ceremonies, particularly weddings. Adjacent to the temple, there is an auditorium and a wedding hall, fully equipped to facilitate weddings, complete with a stage, decorative elements, seating arrangements, a dining hall, a cooking area, and ample parking space. As you approach the temple, you'll more be greeted by a vibrant temple arch at the entrance adorned with stucco depictions of the Shiva family. Upon passing through this arch and walking a short distance, you'll reach another arch leading to the temple itself. The Sree Vishveshwara Temple observes Shivaratri with great pomp and grandeur. Nearby, there is a pond, which, during my visit, was adorned with hyacinths, adding to the temple's serene atmosphere. Access to the temple is convenient via local transportation options, such as buses and auto-rickshaws. Notably, the land for this temple was generously provided by the Thottingal family, and its founding members also hailed from the same family
