Frequent visits to our near by place ,'The Thamarassery Churam'

Thamarassery churam ,for me it was the beginning of my tour life.I used to visit thamarassery churam very often.I used to take a bike ,ride through the hairpins and finally  reach the gateway to wayanad.
I just cal it a mini bike trip.From each of the hairpin curves you have a different look at the place around.
Side view of the hairpins
The place may be sometimes covered by fog.Fog adds beauty to the place.And i love it.A cool weather prevails all over the place.
At the 9th hairpin ,you will get a wide view of the hairpins,vehicles along the road,surrounding forest,beautiful sky and lot more.
