The childrens play-ground.
 Keeri- malai (Mongoose hill - Tamil) is a fresh water spring where legend says that a Chola Princess was miraculously cured of her 'mongoose shaped face' when she bathed in it. It had a famous temple where festivals were held annually over centuries. It is a tourist attraction.
