Yakshi Statue is a monumental outdoor sculpture by Kerala artist Kanayi Kunhiraman in the Malampuzha Garden complex near Palakkad. Created in 1969, the seated figure has become one of the best-known works associated with the garden. Its setting places modern sculpture against the landscaped grounds, reservoir and forested lower slopes of the Western Ghats.
A visit to Yakshi Statue is normally combined with Malampuzha Garden and other attractions around the dam. Opening hours, illumination and admission charges for the garden can change, so current information should be confirmed before departure. The site is reached by road from Palakkad. Visitors should treat the sculpture as a public artwork, avoid climbing or touching it and help keep the landscaped surroundings clean.
