About

Kanipura Sri Gopalakrishna Temple at Kumbla is an ancient temple situated eight miles due north of the town of Kasaragod in Kerala in South India. This shrine is eulogised as among the extant Abhimana Kshethrams in Vaishnavite tradition. The Krishnashila Idol of the Lord Bala Gopalkrishna had the features of a child and was worshipped by Lord Krishna's foster mother Yashoda. According to local religious beliefs, this idol was presented by the almighty Lord Krishna himself to the sage Maharshi in Dvapara Yuga, who in turn the idol at its present location where the temple still stands today.
