Ramapuram is a suburb of Malappuram in the Indian state of Kerala.[1] Ramapuram is 8 km from the district HQ city Malappuram towards Palakkad on National Highway-966. The Malappuram showrooms of both TOYOTA[2][3] and NISSAN[4] are located at Panangangara, Ramapuram in Puzhakkattiri. Temples of lord Sri Rama, Sita, Lakshmana, Bharatha and Sathrughna are within a range of two kilo meters.
