Gowreeswara-Temple-Cherai

Gowreeswara Temple Cherai located in the Cherai village area is one of the prime Hindu religious places to visit in Kochi.
                                    It is locally called Malyala Palani and Muruga Temple.
                                    The main God worshipped here is Lord Subrahmanyan.
                                    Though the nomenclature is after Lord Gowreeswara, Lord Subrahmanyan’s father.
                                    This is the only temple in India with Chaturmukha Kovil, which is a Dravidian architecture style with doors on all four sides.
                                    If you happen to visit in the last two weeks of January and the first two weeks of February, watch out for the caparisoned elephant march, which is a part of the Cherai Gowreeswara Temple Festival
