Alight here for the famous Sabarimala Ayyappa Shrine in the Periyar Tiger Reserve (Peak season is mid-November to mid-January when it is open for the entire two months at a stretch). The forest hill shrine is usually open only for the first week of every Malayalam month and other special days like Onam etc. The pilgrimage requires a 48-day vrata and an arduous mountainous trek. Advised only for those in sound health. *** Though the nearby Chengannur is the closest, Tiruvalla is a bigger town and practically the better option.... more...
Yahaan utar jao Sabarimala Ayyappa Shrine ke liye jo Periyar Tiger Reserve mein hai (peak season mid-November se mid-January tak rehti hai jab vah do mahine tak khula hota hai). Yaah jungle ke pahadi mandir har Malayalam mahine ke pehle hafte aur dusre special dinon jaise Onam ke liye hi khula hota hai. Ye yatra ke liye aapko 48 din ka vrat aur kathin pahadiyon wala trek karna padega. Isko sirf swasth vyaktiyo ke liye mana jaata hai. *** Jabki paas wala Chengannur sabse nazdeek hai, lekin Tiruvalla bada shahar hai aur practically behtar vikalp hai.
