Nuzzled in the folds of the Nilgiri Hills in the Western Ghats is an arresting expanse of green cradling a rich haven of flora and fauna - The Silent Valley National Park. This pristine green blanket covering an area of 237.52 sq km is a unique preserve of tropical evergreen rainforests. It is one of the few bio hot spots in the world. And it is home to a rich biodiversity, sustained in an ecosystem, which is fragile and needs to be handled with care. Hundreds of pilgrims carrying heavy wooden crosses chanted Ponnum Kurishu Muthappo, Ponmala Kayattom (Oh, Patriarch of the Golden Cross, we climb the golden hill) as they trekked up the Kurishumudi (Hill of the Cross) at Malayattoor in Kerala’s Ernakulam district.
