Thuruthipuram

Situated on the Periyar River, the rainy season can prove challenging for residents, with occasional flooding of lower-lying areas.

According to the historical books, Thuruthipuram was the native of the first Roman Catholic group of the Archdiocese of Verapoly.

In 2016, a group of people from this place built a "Iruttukuthi"(also known as "OOdi") boat and named it "Thuruthippuram".

TBC rowing Gabriel Chundan won Nehru Trophy in 2017 beating Mahadevikkad Kattilthekkethi.

Many villagers also practice Chavittu nadakam, a classical art form of Latin Christians.
