The temple stands in a scenic land on the banks of a big river fringed with palm trees on both shores. The river is treated with reverence and is untouched by any pollutants. There are many tributaries attached with the main river. To have a lighter moment, it is possible to take a cruise on the vastness of PARASSINI RIVER in front of the Temple and for these houseboats are provided. Stay in the houseboat is unique and is unmatched by any other experiences. You can take a trip up/down the river in the speedboats too till you get scared or being forced to return back to normal world. The Parassinikadavu Ayurveda Medical College is situated nearby and Pappinissery Toxicology Center is another important institution founded in the same locality, where snakebite victims are treated and study on venom is done.
