Hill Name : Kanjamalai
Speciality : Lots of traditional Herb's, Temples and wells are situated around the Hill.
We start our journey with three members team from Chennai Central to Salem junction. We reached at early morning and get the town bus to reach the new bus stand.
Then had some breakfast and get refreshed, then get into the bus to reach "Elam Pillai Stop".
A pot full of making "Bonda" with a new kind of stove, really amazing to see this and we wait for that bonda to be ready. Buy some bondas and start walking to reach the hill. While seeing around most of the herb plants are not properly maintained (name boards are placed but plants are not available)
Me and my friend Sakthivel
When we walk over the road you can found a Temple (Arulmigu Sithaeswara Swami) within 500meters. Near by the Temple they will provide iron buckets with the rope for Herbal Bath.
Just Pay 10 rupees per bucket and enjoy bathing, beware of monkeys around the areas.
Read the below guidelines on the board they specify for the safety of the surrounding to keep clean. Please avoid plastic bags.
We got a bucket and ready for the bath. Really a freshness experience after having a bath in the well. After took a bath, we took the path to find the Sithar Kovil.
The surroundings are fully planted with Herbal trees, but the worst part is they never maintained properly. Just we saw the plant names boarded with the yellow stones.
