Held every year, the festival attracts millions of women devotees who gather to offer Pongala to Goddess Bhagavathy, lovingly called Attukalamma. As part of the ritual, women cook Pongala—a sweet preparation made with rice, jaggery, coconut, and bananas—in earthen pots as an offering to the deity. The celebration is both colorful and deeply spiritual, reflecting Kerala’s rich cultural and religious traditions. It signifies the triumph of good over evil while highlighting the unity, devotion, and steadfast faith of women who participate in this sacred observance. #AttukalPongala #AttukalBhagavathy #Attukalamma #PongalaFestival #Thiruvananthapuram #KeralaTourism You can subscribe to our channel here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmiF2GcrQwFeiTdnKJ_023A Visit https://www.keralatourism.org/ for the latest updates on Kerala
