Sree Krishna Temple, Ambalapuzha

The Ambalapuzha Temple is a typical Kerala style built temple, dedicated to Sree Krishna. Ambalapuzha temple is famous for its temple architecture and the milk porridge- Paalpaayasam. Chembakasseri Pooradam built this temple in 800 AD. One of the legends connected with the origin of this temple is related to the sage Vilwamangalam Swaamiyaar. Devanarayana Raja surrendered his kingdom to Sreekrishnan after the consecration of Ambalapuzha temple and assumed the name Devanarayanan. The idol at Ambalapuzha is likened to Parthasaarathhi with a whip in the right hand and a Shankhu (sacred conch) in the left. It is also in this temple that 'Pallipana' dance is performed by 'Velans' (sorcerers) once in twelve years. Human sacrifice was conducted in ancient times.

This temple is famous throughout Kerala for the milk porridge, 'Palpayasam' served here. At Karumadi, near by, is an image of the Buddha, a relic of the times when Buddhism flourished in the State.

The ten-day annual festival of the temple commences with the flag-hoisting ceremony on the Atham day in Meenam (March-April). The arattu Utsavam takes place in Thiruvonam day i.e. the tenth day. But much importance is attached to the ninth-day festival. On this day the famous Natakasala (dance hall) sadya or feast is held in honor of the Marars, the traditional artists who play the percussion instruments.
