Angadipuram is a Town, an important pilgrimage center for Hindus located in Malappuram District of Kerala, southern India. Angadipuram was the capital of the powerful medieval kingdom of Valluvanad. Angadipuram is famous for its two temples, the Thirumanthamkunnu Temple and the Tali Temple.

Angadippuram is now known as the temple town of Malabar. It is actually a temple town, as it is rich in the case of number of temples. Nearly 12 temples are there in the village. The Thirumandhankunnu Bhagawathy Temple was built by the erstwhile kings/rulers of Walluvanad. The goddess Bhagavathi at the temple is the family god (kuladaivam) of the Valluvokonathiris. This temple has gained prominence lately. The village is one of the biggest in the Malappuram district. It is filled with traditions and a flourishing tourism business. Apart from Thirumandhamkunnu Bhagavathy Temple, there is yet another important pilgrim centre in the village is the Tali temple which is also near the highway.
