The Sri Srinivasa Perumal temple, also called Kulasekhara Alwar temple or Tirukulasekharapuram temple, is an early 9th-century (800–825 CE) Hindu temple located south of Kodungallur near Thiruvanchikulam in Thrissur district. It is dedicated to Vishnu and is one of the distinctive Alwar tradition temples. The site was expanded in the 11th-century. The temple's 9th to 11th-century monuments are notable illustrations of the Chera dynasty Hindu architecture.

The dvitala Krishna temple at this Tirukulasekharapuram complex is the best preserved 9th-century Hindu temple of Chera capital region. For further details, please see scholarly publications such as by Madhusudan Dhaky, Ceras of Mahodayapuram in Encyclopedia of India Temple Architecture (Volume 1, Part 1, Text, pp. 277–278).

The Sri Srinivasa Perumal temple of Kodungallur is co-located with the Udayamangalam Shiva temple. The parikrama walls were added later.
