The abode of Sree Palkulangara Devi is one of the most ancient temples in Kerala.

There is a section in which Nala asks his messenger swan to visit Palkulangara Devi and take the blessings of the Goddess en route to delivering the messages to his lady love Damayanti.

Traditional Parvati in her manifestation as Tripura Sundari along with Kali are the main deities in this temple.

One important aspect of the temple is that Durga manifests as the Temple Bhagavathi and Kali as Oorutu Amma, both being avatars of Adi Parashakti.

There are many upadevathas (sub-deities) adjacent to the temple, and it has been remade, according to the Deva Prashnam by expert astrologers recently.
