About the Event
The Eladipattam caverns are home to historic murals that dated back to the Iron Age. It’s situated in the Sittannavasal district, which, according to historians, roughly translates to 'abode of great saints'. This site is also home to a Jain temple carved out of the rock face, known as Arivar Koil. Marvel the intriguing structure as you experience the ancient South Indian history at this temple.
