About Kadayanallur, Your Drop Point
Kadayanallur is a town in Tenkasi district, Tamil Nadu, located about 15 km east of Tenkasi town and close to the Shencottah pass that connects Tamil Nadu with Kerala across the Western Ghats. At its centre stands the Kadakaleeswarar Temple (also called Kadayaleeswarar Temple), a Shiva shrine estimated to be 500-1,000 years old with Dravidian-style carvings and a sacred tank, whose presiding deity Kadaikaaleeswara gave the town its name. Sitting at the foothills of the Ghats, the town benefits from higher rainfall than the surrounding plains, which supports the plantations of bananas, coconuts and spices grown in the nearby villages. Kadayanallur functions as a key trading centre for this produce, and its Central Market draws growers and commission agents from across the region, particularly during the annual Banana & Spice Trade Fair held every August, when harvest arrivals peak and traders travel in from Tenkasi, Madurai, and Kerala border towns via the Shencottah pass. The town's economy remains closely tied to this agricultural trade, supplying fresh produce to markets across southern Tamil Nadu and into Kerala.
