ARATTUPUZHA POORAM - 2026 HIGHLIGHTS | ആറാട്ടുപുഴ പൂരം | THRISSUR POORAM | 2026

Arattupuzha Pooram is not just a festival, but a grand divine spectacle where tradition comes alive in its most majestic form. Celebrated at the sacred Arattupuzha Temple, this ancient Pooram—older than Thrissur Pooram—is famed for its breathtaking lineup of beautifully adorned elephants. Each elephant is decorated with shimmering golden Nettipattam, elegant ornaments, and vibrant parasols that create a mesmerizing display of color and symmetry. As the powerful rhythms of traditional melam echo through the night, the glowing temple lights and intricate decorations transform the entire space into a divine arena. More than just visual grandeur, it is a sacred gathering of deities from multiple temples, making the festival a rare blend of spiritual depth, cultural richness, and royal procession that feels truly timeless. #arattupuzhapooram #pooram2026 #pooram #thrissur #thrissurpooram #keralatourism #keralastory #kochi #southindia #godsowncountry
