Alangad is a village located in Paravur Taluk of Ernakulam District in the Indian state of Kerala.

That was the time Kingdoms of Parur and Alangad were annexed to Travancore after pensioning off the ruling King.

The village was scenic with its greenery and was covered almost entirely with vast expanses of paddy fields and coconut trees.

But since a huge amount of sand is taken from the river bed it is no longer shallow or safe to walk through even in summers.

Legend has it that Lord Sabarimala Sree Ayyappan took lessons in the traditional martial art Kalarippyattu at Alangad.

Major heavy mechanical vehicles, bus and small cars have their warehouses and PDI centers on the highway.
