Punalur, Quilon |
Punalur is one of the important industrial centres of Kerala. It is 45 kms. from Kollam on the Kollam-Shencotta railway line and is also linked with Kollam by road. The Punalur Paper Mills, started as early as 1885, is one of the main factories. The suspension bridge across the Kallada river, erected in 1877, is the only one of its kind in south India and it is 400 ft. long. A concrete bridge has been constructed nearby and now the suspension bridge is only of arachaeological interest. The temple here, dedicated to Lord Ayyappa, Lord Krishna, Lord Siva and Goddess Bhagavathy, attract huge gatherings during festival season. There are two Roman Catholic Churches too, at Punalur. The chief commodities of export here are the hill produces, pine-apple, pepper products, plywood and timber, Punalur is the head quarters of Pathanapuram taluk.
