Kudayathoor
Village in Kerala, India / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Kudayathoor is a village in Idukki district[1] which is located along the Thodupuzha-Puliyanmala road in the Indian state of Kerala.[2] Kudayathoor is known for its scenery mostly because of the towering presence of Western ghats on one side.[citation needed] A number of Malayalam films have also been shot in this area, including Kunjikoonan, Vasanthiyum Lakshmiyum Pinne Njaanum, Vismayathumbathu, Drishyam, Kadha Parayumbol, Rasathanthram, Aadu, and Vellimoonga. Malankara dam, which is a hydro electric power plant located in Muttom, uses this place as its catchment area.
