A landmark in your place
· Where it is located
· What it is called
· Describe it
Yes, my place is known for a few prominent spots
like churches, old buildings and new high-rises.
The landmark I am going speak about is called
Shrine of Fr. Kuriakose Elias, one of our Christian priests
who lived in the middle of the 20th century. He is said to have had many mysterious personal traits.
And this particular shrine is located some five kilometers off my house. The name of the place is called Mannanam.
This shrine is atop a small hillock/mount, so that this shrine stands prominent, and is identifiable from long distance as well.
This is actually a pilgrim center, and Christians from different parts of the state come to visit this landmark.
And coming to it, it displays the belongings of Fr. Kuriakose, and there is a small room in which all his books and furniture items are displayed.
And in one corner of it, there is a small cabin which carries the Spectacle, pen, and a few communications he had had from the British.
And I would say, this place is almost named after this shrine.
