Malliyoor Sri Maha Ganapathi Temple In Kottayam
The list of temples in Kottayam is never-ending. Another fantastic place
to visit with your family is Malliyoor Sri Maha Ganapathi Temple which is
dedicated to Lord Ganesha. It is believed that this temple existed before the
regiment of Perumals in the region. The most impressive part of this temple is
the idol.
The idol of Ganesha is
different from what we usually see in temples. On the left lap of Ganesha sits
little Krishna, which symbolizes the unity of two sects – Vaisnavas (believers
of Lord Vishnu) and Saivas (believers of Lord Shiva). This is why people never
miss exploring this temple which is counted among the top Kottayam
tourist places.
