The famous Madiyan Kulom temple is situated in Ajanur village. It is about five km from Kanhangad, the headquarters of Hosdurg taluk. The main deity of this temple is Bhadrakali. The peculiar feature of this temple is that a Brahmin priest performs pooja only in the noon, while the morning and evening poojas are performed by a sect or group called Maniyanis. The festivals in the temple fall during the months of Edavam (May, June) and Dhanu (December, January).
