राम रामेति रामेति, रमे रामे मनोरमे ।

सहस्रनाम तत्तुल्यं, रामनाम वरानने॥

Triprayar is very small village in the Thrishur District.

This place is famous for the Shri Rama Temple situated on the banks of the Karuvannur River and is just 1km from the main highway connecting Guruvayur and Kodungallur.

Such a view of the temple is mesmerizing.
