To begin with this is a really really ancient temple located in the brahmagiri range bordering Karnataka. The exact date of foundation is unknown but what's known is that this place is known as the Kashi of the south. People come here to wash their sins away ,and be close to the Divine. Temple timings are morning till 12pm and evening 5.30-8pm. The temple has old architecture and the vibes feel so good here. I personally felt so uplifted out here ,surely something divine and positive . PS: people other then Hindu faith are not allowed inside the temple However they are free to enjoy the premises . There is lots of shopping around the temple footsteps I picked up some tea, ayurvedic herbs, honey ,soaps and what not for good price and premium quality (first shop down the steps) The ride to the temple is amazing and from a forest zones , chances of spotting the wild is very very high . Also recommended to travel in Your own transportation, as public transport in this side of the state is dull My humble request is to visit this place and feel good ;)

We have to this place in July 2017 from Bangalore. Accessibility : You can reach the foot of the point by car. From there we took jeep which costs around Rs. 500. What you see : Breathtaking views. You can see tea plantations of Tamil Nadu, Nescafe Factory, Meen Mutthy falls Sochipara falls, and there meeting at the Chaliyar river, the view of Chembra peak, dense forest valley, clouds. Food : There is no food along the way. But there are hotels in Vaduvanchal. Verdict : A must visit for nature lovers. there is a bit of walking along the path surrounded by small bushes. Tip: Be very careful as the land is slippery. there are many insects around. Stay away from those beautiful catterpillars they may sting you so bad that tumhe nani yaad aa jayegi (get into serious trouble).

A breathtaking trip to the top of Kurumbalakotta for sun rise is an unique experience and a must visit place in Wayanad. You have to trek the last 2.5km or take a bumpy ride in a jeep.

These are real culture and monuments of Indian culture and there is so much learnings about our history. If all these are promoted and maintained well, India has unbeatable edge in tourism compare to any other places in world. Look at Rome and Look at India; we also have architectural wonders , but here politicians have let it collapse and get ruined .
