Sree Vadakkunnathan Temple in Kerala has won the UNESCO 'Award of Excellence' 2015 for the remarkable conservation efforts.

It is in recognisation for the remarkable conservation efforts undertaken at the sacred site which employed age old rituals and conservation techniques drawn from Vastu Shastra focusing on architecture and construction.

Can any one tell about this temple - Deity, function etc.

I used to enjoy my morning walks around The Round (a huge park) in Trichur in the centre of which is this temple. Paaramekkavu temple is a little away from this temple.
