Yanaimalai In Madurai

Yanaimalai

                    Far from the chaos of Madurai city, Yanaimalai is a welcome break from packed schedules and crowd of devotees. Known as Elephant Hill owing to its shape, the hill is home to a number of Shaivite and Vaishnavite temples as well as Jain sculptures. The temples are located at the base of the hill while the Jain sculptures are at the top. The lush greenery on the backdrop of harsh rocks, the remnants of rich history and the serenity at this place are reasons enough to include this beauty in your itinerary.
