It&#8217;s <\/span>one of the most significant gatherings on the continent of Asia. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The festival celebrates the temple&#8217;s unity, and devotees worship Lord Shiva, the Vaakkunathan Temple&#8217;s main deity. Its celebration began 200 years ago, during the era of the ruler of the kingdom of Cochin, <strong>Shakthan Thampuran<\/strong>.

It was during the time of King Raja Rama Verma, who ruled over the kingdom of Cochin. He initiated the celebration of Arattupuzha Pooram and made it the only Pooram festival in the region.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">Heavy Rainful During Thrissur Pooram<\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">However, during the celebration of Arattupuzha Pooram, the people of Thrissur were late due to heavy rainfall. Individuals couldn&#8217;t celebrate festivals when they reached the venue. All the people were angry and disappointed and thus asked for justice from King Raja Rama Verma.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">How Was the Festival Started?<\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">King Raja Rama suggested the people of Thrissur celebrate their festival in their region by listening to the people of the place. He asked the people of Thrissur to bring all the dieties of nearby ten temples to Vadakkunnathan Thrissur Pooram temple and celebrate their temple festival. It is how the origin of Thrissur Pooram started, and it turned out to be the most massive and beautiful celebration.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">History Behind Representing Elephants on this Day<\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">Another history of the festival Thrissur pooram is related to the history of elephants. People chose more than 50 elephants, which represent not only this divine festival but also the cultural heritage of Kerala. The elephants play a significant role in the Kudamattom ceremony, which has two rows comprising 15 elephants who stand face to face and show the designed<strong> parasols<\/strong> (umbrellas) one after the other.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">The Age-Old Traditions of Thrissur Pooram<\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">People traditionally represent more than 15 elephants in the smaller temples, and 15 elephants are reserved for the main temples, Thiruvambaddy and Paramekkavu. They also check the height and weight of the elephants participating in the festival. This is an honour for the elephant owners who participate in the festival. People reveal the final selection of animals three days before the festival, which continues as an age-old tradition.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 18pt;\"><b>Why is the Thrissur Pooram Festival Celebrated?\u00a0<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">Some of the essential factors that make the festival of Thrissur Pooram more significant and splendid are:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">People celebrate the festival in the Vadakkunnathan Temple, where they gather from nearby villages and bring their dieties.
