A unique temple complex with three temples dating back to 16th century C.E. is located on the bank of the Neyyar River at Neyyattinkara. These temples have simple architectural features. The Vishnu temple has a circular vimana and faces the east. The image of Vishnu carved in stone is a beautiful example of craftsmanship. The Siva-Parvathi temple is a small shrine. The Sastha temple is apsidal (gajaprishta) in shape. This is the smallest apsidal temple protected by the Department of Archaeology.
