    One of the rare jain temples in Kerala. Only standing statue of lord ananthaswamy. Temple ambience is very good so that you will feel a state of tranquility. There is a Mahathma Gandhi museum also in the same field. Some Jain houses are also situated nearby. A must see Jain temple if you are a history lover.

    This temple is on mandavadi road from kalpetta. Beautiful statue of lord ananthatha swami. Statue is in standing pose ( Khadasan) very rarely you will get lord ananthatha swami statue in standing pose. If you are visiting in sunday morning there will be pooja by poojari in mysore style. worth to watch. Campus has got marriage hall and it is surrounded by lush greenery. If you go in odd hours please ask priest for keys they are staying near to temple so that you can do worship. This famous Jain temple is located at Puliyarmala, Kalpetta in the district of Wayanad in Kerala. It is dedicated to Lord Anantanatha the 14th Tirthankara. Jainism came to Kerala in the 3rd century BCE after Chandragupta Maurya traveled to Shravanabelagola in Karnataka accompanied by the Jain Acharya Bhadrabahu. Many of the followers traveled further South to Tamil Nadu and Kerala in search of places of solitude for meditation and penance. Jainism received royal patronage from some of the Kings which helped in the spread of Jainism

    Puliyarmala Jain Temple is dedicated to Ananthanatha Swami who was a Tirthankar; this temple is also known as ”Anantnath Swami Temple”. It is one of the oldest temple in Kerala, built in the 13th century and depicts the mastery of Jain architectures. The temple is located in Puliyarmala in the district of Wayanad in Kerala. Tipu Sultan stored his ammunition inside the premises of the building; thus it is also known as “Tipu Fort”. Influence of Dravidian style painting is all over the temple; the beautiful carvings are on the doors and stupa of the temple. Interior of the temple is peaceful and smoothly imprinted. It also has the largest brass idol in the premises and a carved statue of Lord Mahavir at the front door.

😐 Mailadippara is a local spot with a very good view point. Went there by car. The path is very narrow ( only one vehicle can pass through the road at a time). Place is much of a local interest. There is a small area for parking. Keep in mind that it is not a well maintained tourist spot. Once you ha...
