Mangaladevi Temple sits deep within Periyar Tiger Reserve at an altitude of over thirteen hundred meters, built from massive stone blocks believed to be a thousand years old. Dedicated to the goddess Mangaladevi, associated with the Tamil legend of Kannaki, the temple opens to visitors only once a year during the Chitra Pournami festival. The remote forest setting and restricted access give it a mystique rarely found at other Kerala temples, drawing pilgrims willing to trek through tiger reserve terrain.
