Thiruvanvandoor snake boat race.

Gosalakrishna Temple, Thiruvanvandoor, Chengannur
This temple has Lord Krishna as the presiding deity and it is believed that the idol was originally installed by Nakulan, one of the Pandava princes. The ten - day annual festival commences with Kodiyettam and ends with a display of twenty-five caparisoned elephants. Several folk rituals like Karakattam, Thalapoli, Ammankudam, Kurathiyattam etc. add colour to the festival. A grand snake-boat race is held every year under the auspices of this temple. Many traditional snake boats (chundan vallam) take part in the race and the procession.
