===శంకర దేవాలయం===

[[Adi Shankara]] was born in Kalady as the only son of Sivaguru and Aryamba, a [[Namboothiri]] couple. Shankara's shrine at Kalady, run by the [[Sringeri]] Mutt, is a large, partly open structure situated on the northern bank of the river [[Periyar]], or Purna. There are two major shrines in the temple; one is dedicated to Sri Sankaracharya and the other to Goddess Saradamba, the main deity of Sringeri. The samadhi of Sri Sankara's mother, Aryamba, is also located here. A small shrine to [[Vinayaka]], or [[Ganapati]], is the scene of evening prayers, chanted to the rhythmic ringing of cymbals. The worship in these temples is done by [[Tamil people|Tamil]] or [[Kannada Smartha]] [[Brahmin]]s, and not by [[Nampoothiri]]s.
