Tour Description
Start your trip by paying a visit to the well-known Malayattoor Church, a holy place for Christians. This church is thought to be one of the locations where St. Thomas the Apostle prayed, perched atop the Malayattoor hill. Thousands of believers climb the hill every year during the Lenten season in hopes of receiving blessings. Savour the excitement of ascending the slope to get at the church. Surrounded by verdant vegetation, the walk provides amazing vistas of the surroundings. The walk is enjoyable because of the calm atmosphere and the expansive views from the summit.
