Mammiyoor Temple / Map / Detail / More

Most visitors to Guruvayoor also pay a visit to the Mammiyoor temple, situated half a km from here. The story goes that Shiva and Parvathi were witnesses to the installation of the idol at Guruvayoor. Since there wasn’t enough space for them there, they moved a little further away, to Mammiyoor and gave their blessings from there. The Mammiyoor temple was built on the spot. http://www.maplandia.com/india/kerala/trissur-trichur/guruvayur/nature/mammiyoor-temple/ http://www.hindudevotionalblog.com/2009/12/mammiyoor-temple-in-guruvayoor-thrissur.html
