The Chinakathoor Bhagavathy Kshethram (which I visited in the summer of 2017) is located about 5 km out of Ottapalam town in the middle of a huge ground where the annual เดชเตเดฐเด (Pooram) festival is conductedIt is comprised of two temples, the เดคเดพเดดเตเดเดพเดตเต (the lower shrine) & the เดฎเตเดฒเดเดพเดตเต (the upper shrine). The latter is believed to be the older temple in terms of chronology.There is also a small shrine dedicated to Lord Ganapati at the foot of a large aged banyan tree on the premises.
One of the main Devi Durga temple in ancient Valluvanad taluk,now ottapalam taluk. The annual pooram celebration is conducting on makam star in kumbam of Malayalam era.

The west side of procession with elephants, horses,and tablos starts from ottapalam town and will reach the temple. In that 5 kms peoples will gather to see the procession.

Chinakkathoor temple is one of the famous temple in Kerala. Chinakkathoor Pooram is also a famous festival celebrating every year. Kuthirakali (horse play) is the main atraction of pooram. Temple renovation works are going under malabar devaswam board. Pilgrims who are coming from distant places can take bath in temple pond. Toilet fecilities also there.
