'''Kappil Bhagavathy Temple''' is a famous temple in southern [[Kerala]] located at [[Kappil, Thiruvananthapuram]].<br />
<br />
There are two temples, one for [[Lord Siva]] and the other for [[Devi]] [[Bhadrakali]].<br />
<br />
The festival that occurs in Bhadrakali temple also occurs on a holiday celebrating "''Meena Bharani''".<br />
<br />
The Kappil Lord Shiva temple is believed to be about 2,000 years old. The idol of Lord Shiva faces to the west. The legend says that there was also a 5,000-year-old temple which was positioned in the same direction towards west, but is now located under the [[Arabian sea]]. That 5,000-year-old temple was said to have a ‘Swarna kodi maram-/Golden Flag Staff’.<br />
<br />
Kappil Bhagavathy Temple is listed in many of the histories of Kerala. The old royal family from [[Thiruvithaamkoor]] used to visit it during their summer vacation, and It is believed by residents of the area that the cosmic power of the temple is strong. The ''[[Kripa (philosophy)|Kripa]]'' of Lord Shiva flows like the [[River Ganges]]. The temple is also considered an apt spot for those who seek self-realization.<br />
