Karalam

Karalam is a small village in Thrissur district in Kerala state of India.

Agriculture is the primary industry, but many households have at least one member working abroad, often in the Gulf.

Only Hindus may enter the temple, but members of other religions also believe in Kumaranchira Bhagavathy (Deity) up to a certain extent and send their offerings to the temple through their Hindu friends or neighbours.
