Located in sylvan surroundings on the southern banks of the River Payaswini, this ancient Siva Temple, Sree Mahalingeswara Temple at Adoor, contains a Sanskrit inscription in Kannada script which has been ascribed to the Western Chalukya King Kirthivarman II (745 - 755 AD). The Adoor Mahalingeshwara Temple is one of the splendid temples in Kerala. Makara Sankramam is an important ceremony held here. The festival at the Adoor Temple consists of a holy dip into the river and concludes with mass feeding. It is known as Kumbhabhishekam. The holy dip in the River Payasini is considered as sacramental and so, people try their level best to go and have a sacred bath in the Payasini River. In doing so, their sins are eliminated and they find peace and solace inside their hearts. Nearest railway station is Kasargod, away 41km. Fascinating drive gives from Kasargod through Cherukkala-Mulleri route.
