Lokanarkavu Temple is an ancient Hindu temple located in Memunda, 4 kilometers from Vatakara, in the Kozhikode District of Kerala’s North Malabar region. Lokanarkavu is a contraction of Lokamalayarkavu, which means “world made of mala (mountain), aaru (river), and kavu” (grove). The nearest railway station is in Vatakara, 5 kilometers from the temple.

Pooram is the most important festival in this town, and it is celebrated with great fanfare. The festival lasts a week and starts with Kodiyettam (flag hoisting) and ends with Arattu. The temple dedicated to goddess Durga is historically significant because it was here that Thacholi Othenan, Kerala’s legendary martial hero, used to worship every day.

The Lokanarkavu Bhagavathy Temple hosts a thirty-day Mandala Utsavam in the Malayalam month Vrischikam (November–December) and a Pooram in the Malayalam month Meenam (March–April). During festivals, this is the only temple where a unique folk dance known as Poorakkali is performed. The dance resembles the Kalarippayattu martial art.
