This is a temple in forest. You need to trek for ~Km. First 3 hills are steep. It would take about 3 hours to complete the trekking. Heart patients and Astma patients please avoid trekking.

Chandanapally literally means the abode of sandalwood trees. The church is named after St. George (also the patron saint of England), who slew the dragon snake.As a village which once had snakes of myriad shapes and venom crawling all over, its residents reposed their faith in the saint to save them from not just snakes but ghosts, demons and other dangers that lurked in the darkness.
