Welcome to Moncompu Temple! |
The legend goes like this, a timber merchant was transporting logs of wood through the river Pamba towards Alleppey. It so happened that a log of mango tree got stuck into the shore and did not move.
The merchant consulted the astrologers and found that the wood had the presence of Goddess Bhagvathi and decided to construct a temple, the place was then called as Monkompu ( Derived from the Mango Tree ). |
