Devikulam
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Devikulam is a small, beautiful hill station about 16 km from Munnar in the Idukki District of the southern state of Kerala in India. It is 1800 m about sea level.[1]
According to legend, the goddess Sita Devi of the Ramayana epic bathed in the beautiful Devikulam lake waters surrounded by lush, green hills, now named Sita Devi Lake. The lake draws tourists not only because of its sacredness but also for the curitive powers of its mineral waters. Nearby are the scenic Pallivasal Waterfalls, dense, green tea plantations, and the natural vegetation of slim red and blue gum trees. [2]
