A LITTLE SLICE OF PARADISE

Kuttiady, just 24 kms from Vatakara, is one of the many quaint, picturesque towns that dot the North Malabar region of Kozhikode District. Once a strategic military region, it was one of the only passes into the hills of Wayanad, and lies in the shadow of the magnificent Banasura peak. Kuttiady was an important outpost for Pazhassi Raja's Rebellion, and two golden swords that supposedly belonged to the martyred king were unearthed here. Nowadays, Kuttiady is known for its hydroelectric power plant, its much coveted high yielding coconut palms, and its verdant, natural beauty.
In the present day, Kuttiady has transitioned from a military stronghold into a hub of modern progress and natural beauty. The town is famed for its hydroelectric power plant, contributing significantly to the region's energy needs. This engineering marvel efficiently harnesses the area's abundant water resources to generate electricity, benefiting both the local community and the state.
