The Mullakkal Rajarajeswari Temple, located in the vibrant town of Alappuzha, is one of the most revered temples dedicated to Goddess Rajarajeswari (Durga Devi) in Kerala. Popularly known as Mullakkal Bhagavathy Temple, it is a spiritual center deeply rooted in the cultural and religious life of the region.
Unlike many traditional temples, this shrine has a unique open-roof sanctum, allowing devotees to worship under the sky. The deity is believed to be a powerful manifestation of Goddess Durga, symbolizing strength, protection, and prosperity.
The temple attracts devotees from across Kerala and beyond, especially during festivals when the entire area comes alive with devotion, music, and vibrant celebrations.
