Ananthankadu Nagaraja Temple

Reviewed By sbchand - Thiruvananthapuram (Trivandrum), India

The Ananthankadu Sree Nagaraja Temple, situated in the heart of Trivandrum is located just behind the famous Sree Padmanabha Swamy Temple, on its western side. This is much frequented temple devoted to the Snake God, Sree Nagaraja. The rituals and the deities are awesome. Te pooja timings are in the morning and the temple is open in the evenings as well. The access to the temple, tjough is a bit congested with not sufficient space for a motor car to travel. During Naga Poornima and Ayilyam days the temple will be teeming with devotees. The main offerings are Milk and Turmeric Powder. The Lord is believed to be the incarnation of Lord Anantha, on whom Lord Vishnu lies. There was reportedly a forest in the area in the earlier days of the city and it was called the Ananthan Kadu.(Forest of Anantha).
