  • History

    Here, the cottages are situated inside the forest, but only 85 mts from the main road that bifurcates the thick forest. The above 85 mts look like a canopy. The resort area is fully protected by barbed wire fencing and power fencing. The Naalukettu restaurant and some of the cottages are facing the reserve forest. The drive to the resort from Kattikulam town (Kerala) or Kutta town (Karnataka) is also through the forest which takes less than an hour. Also important tourist attractions like Kuruva Island, Tholpetty Forest, Pakshipathalam Mount, Irippu Waterfall and Kalindi River are nearby.

    The resort is very near to Thirunelli Temple which has been a witness to thousands of years of history and a solace to thousands of pilgrims in prayers. The belief is that if you make a visit to Thirunelli temple you will get the same benefit of a pilgrimage made to Kashi. Therefore it is called Thenkashi which means Southern Kashi.

    The Papanasini River (extinguisher of sins) is on the western side of the temple. The belief is that if we immerse here the ashes of the dead, they get the same benefit that they get at Gaya.

    Thirunelli is an inseparable part in the writing of history of Wayanad and Kerala. There are two copper plate inscriptions, pertaining to the temple, which date back to 10th century. The stone aqueduct that reaches the temple is also hundreds of years old. Thirunelli has also been made famous by the old Malayalam travelogues “Unniyachi Charitham” and "Kokila Sandesham" (Message through Cuckoo).

    In short, Agraharam Resorts and Thirunelli, collectively rejuvenate your body, enliven your soul and enrich your knowledge.
