The celebrated Mahadeva Temple at Kottayam, on the Thirunakkara Hill
at the very centre of the Kottayam Municipal town is one of the important
Siva temples, famous for its historical importance, antiquity and
sanctity.
The grandest festival of this temple is the "Arattu Utsavam"
lasting for ten days from the 1st of Meenam (March-April) which is
attended by hundreds of thousands of people, irrespective of caste
or creed. In the fair held in connection with the Utsavam, industrial
and agricultural products are exhibited and sold. The highlights of
the festival are the cultural programmes and variety entertainments
staged during the festive days.
