Chammanad Devi Festival

The festival night is alive with a chorus of chenda drums, their beats rising in a crescendo that mirrors the collective heartbeat of the gathering crowd. Musicians, draped in traditional attire, line the sandy path leading to the temple, each strike on their drum inviting the divine to partake in the revelry. It’s a testament to Kerala’s enduring cultural heritage, played out under the watchful gaze of the stars.
