SrI:
   
  Sri Suresh,
   
  There is a beautiful and powerful temple for Parasuramamoorthy in 
Thiruvallam, near the famous Kovalam beach in Trivandrum. The idol of Swamy 
Parashuramar here is very life-like and stays in ones mind long after leaving 
the premises.The temple also has shrines of Matsyamoorthy, Narasimhamoorthy and 
Krishnar.
   
  One can visit this temple as part of usual worship and offer archanai etc.
   
  This temple is famous for pithru karmam done. On Aadi Amavasay, which is a 
public holiday in Kerala, thousands throng to this temple to offer pithru 
tharpanam. Ladies are also permitted to do the rites on all days guided by the 
learned Namboothiri priests. One can buy a receipt for less than Rs 10,(like an 
archanai receipt) and offer tharpanam. Cooked rice, til etc will be provided by 
the temple since they will not allow outside objects inside. For vastram, they 
instruct the yajaman to offer a thread of his/her cloth. There is also a 
kovilkulam outside where immersion of ashes is done.
   
  Do visit this temple, it is open long hours on all days.
   
  sincerely
  Vidya
