Karimpuzha, Palakkad district, Kerala · 10.9176°, 76.4230°
A Rama temple on the bank of the Karimpuzha river in Palakkad district, historically held by the Eralpad, heir to the Zamorin of Kozhikode. It is described as one of the rare Mahakshetrams of Kerala and is known locally as Dakshina Ayodhya.
What follows is the temple’s own traditional account, transmitted through liturgy and local memory. It is recorded here as tradition, not as attested history.
Local tradition identifies the Karimpuzha with the Sarayu and holds that Rama ended his earthly life in its waters, which is why Hanuman, his companion in those last moments, is enshrined within the temple.
