Sree Padmanabhaswamy Temple

A Vishnu temple with a massive fort gateway has been built in Dravidian style and is closed to non-Hindus.

Reviewed By EASWAR52 - Mumbai, India

This is one of the oldest temples in Trivandrum. It is very famous and powerful. One must spend considerable time here to have a glimpse of all the important places like, the main deity sree Padmanabhan, darshan of all other deities inside, visit around the premises full of sculptures etc A crowded temple with limited darshan timings and dress codes. A visit to this temple will certainly make you satisfied, fulfilled and happy. Many poojas are available here to suit varied prayers of devotees. Definitely a must see temple and land mark in Trivandrum.

Worth the climb (or the lift!) for the views across the bays. Stunning red and white set against the bluest of skies makes the lighthouse and the beach well worth a visit.
