A field visit was organised by the Department of History for the P G students on 31/01/26. The first destination was Kallil Bhagavathi Temple, a unique rock-cut temple situated on a hill. The temple is known for its ancient architecture and religious significance. Students observed the rock carvings, cave-like structure, and the serene surroundings. The guide explained the history of the temple and its importance in Kerala’s cultural heritage.
After the temple visit, the group proceeded to Paniyeli Poru, a scenic riverside destination on the banks of the Periyar River. The area is known for its rocky terrain, flowing water, and natural beauty. Students studied the river’s flow patterns, rock formations, and biodiversity of the region. The visit provided an opportunity to understand ecological balance and the importance of conserving natural resources.
