'''Kandankali''' is a village in [[Kerala]], [[India]].<ref>[http://www.lsg.kerala.gov.in/election/candidateDetails.php?year=2010&lb=220&ln=en Payyannur Municipality, Kannur]</ref> The village is situated about two kilometers south of the town of [[Payyanur]] in [[Kannur]] district.

==Culture==
Kandankali has traditionally been home of [[Progressivism|progressive]] movements and many forms of traditional and ritualistic arts like [[Theyyam]], [[Poorakkali]] and [[Kolkali]]. The population of the village is almost entirely constituted by [[Hindu]]s who by and large are very secular in their outlook.

==Nature==
The place is very scenic and is bounded on its east and south side by the beautiful [[Perumba River]].

==Temples==
The famous Subramanya Swami Temple is near Kandankali. The name Kandankali is formed from 'Kandan' and 'Kali' which means Lord Shiva and Parvathi. The famous Karali Sree Bhadrakali Temple is located at the western border of Kandankali.

==Geography and natural resources==
This place is best for fish farming and prawn farming. The Perumba and Kunchimangalam Rivers are located in Kandangali. It is also very near to the Ezhimala Naval Academy, where the mountain view from the sea is so beautiful as well as the vision from the mountain to the sea.

==Transportation==
The national highway passes through [[Perumba River|Perumba]] junction. [[Goa]] and [[Mumbai]] can be accessed on the northern side and [[Cochin]] and [[Thiruvananthapuram]] can be accessed on the southern side. The road to the east of [[Iritty]] connects to [[Mysore]] and [[Bangalore]]. The nearest railway station is [[Payyanur railway station|Payyanur]] on [[Mangalore]]-[[Palakkad]] line, from which trains are available to almost all parts of India. There are airports at [[Kannur International Airport|Kannur]], [[Mangalore Airport|Mangalore]] and [[Calicut International Airport|Calicut]]. All of them are international airports but direct flights are available only to Middle Eastern countries.
