Jatayu Earth’s Center Kollam

Demi-god Jatayu is said to have fallen upon Chadayamangalam as he tried to save Sita

Chadayamangalam was known as Jatayumangalam, with rocks in the area bearing carvings said to be beak marks of Jatayu and footprints belonging to Lord Rama

Jatayu Earth Centre, also known as Jatayu Nature Park or Jatayu Rock, the first-ever BOT tourism model of the state, is a theme park and tourism centre reigning at an altitude of 1,200 ft above sea level. Spanning 65 acres across four hills, it is home to the world’s largest bird sculpture, Jatayu, making it hard to miss even from as far as Chadayamangalam as one approaches the capital city. Myriad experiences await the traveller upon reaching the hilltop at Jatayu Park in a cable car, including the audio-visual museum and a 6D theatre inside the sculpture. The Burma bridges, commando nets, log walks, vertical ladder, chimney climbing, archery, zip-lining, rifle shooting and side jhoola are sure to give one an adrenaline rush.
