Mekkolla is a residential locality and growing settlement situated within the Kollayil panchayat of Neyyattinkara Taluk in the Thiruvananthapuram district of Kerala. Located roughly 3 km away from Dhanuvachapuram, it acts as a connecting pocket positioned off internal regional routes accessible via the Nediamcode Junction on the Neyyattinkara–Dhanuvachapuram–Vellarada route, or via Manavila Junction coming from Manavila-Karakonam.
Major local landmarks include the historic Mekkolla Sree Bhagavathy Temple—widely known for its annual Pathamudaya Pongala festival and Thrikkarthika celebrations. Geographically, it sits approximately 7 to 8 km northeast of Neyyattinkara Town and about 26 to 28 km southeast of the state capital hub of Thampanoor (Thiruvananthapuram Central). The nearest major transport nodes are the Dhanuvachapuram Railway Station (part of the Thiruvananthapuram–Kanyakumari line), located just a few kilometers away, and the Trivandrum International Airport, situated roughly 30 km to the northwest.
