Kallil Temple


It is a 9th century Jain temple shaped out from a huge rock in a picturesque surrounding situated 8 miles south of the Periyar. 


There are 120 steps to reach the temple. It is at the top of a hill. The idols of Theerthankaran and Padmavathi Devi are carved on the rock inside the cave. On the top of the large rock the footprint is also carved.
