Thirunelli TempleNestled amidst mountains and forests, the ancient riverside temple of Thirunelli is a fine specimen of classical Kerala temple architecture.

Often referred to as Dakshina Kasi (the Kasi of the south), this temple draws pilgrims from all over, primarily for ancestral rites.
The two main festivals here are in April and August/September.
Distance: Kalpetta: 64 kms. Sulthan Bathery: 71 kms. Mananthavadi: 29 kms.
