Thank you for the incredible pictures of Manjolai hills, in Tirunelveli district. Tirunelveli , also known as Nellai or Tinnevelly, is a city in the South Indian state of Tamil Nadu. Located on the west bank of the Thamirabarani River and believed to be an ancient settlement there are a number of historical places to visit in Tirunelveli , the Nellaiappar Temple being the most prominent.
