Kadanad

Kadanad is a small town situated to the north of Pala in Kottayam District.  The name Kadanad is a combination of two Malayalam words - 'Kadu' (referring forest) and 'Nadu' (meaning village).

The place is blessed with mist-covered mountains and valleys. Its peculiar and unique geographical position is well-matched for the cultivation of coffee, rubber, pepper and cardamom.

Kadanad River is a major water source flowing through this town. It rises from the  Melukavu Hills and joins up with the Ezhachery River. Then it flows in the form of Pala Meenachil River.

Prime attractions are St Augustine's Church,Perumattom Sastha Temple and St.Sebastian's High School.

Kadanad is on the way to Thodupuzha and can be easily approached from Pala. By road, the town is connected with Ramapuram, Uzhavoor,  Meenachil and Erattupetta. The nearest major railhead is Kottayam Railway Station.
