Wayanad is a well-known hill station located on the border of Tamil Nadu and Kerala that attracts millions of tourists round the year. Wayanad is not just known for its scenic locations, waterfalls, spice plantations, flora, and fauna, it has much more to it. Do you know that Wayanad was once inhabited by Jains and that it has India’s only earth dam called Banasura Sagar Dam. The word “Wayanad” has been borrowed from two Malayali words – “Vayal” meaning paddy fields and “Nadu” which means country land. The Wayanad Wildlife Sanctuary which is a part of the Nilgiri Biosphere Reserve is located in the Western Ghats. The Nilgiri Biosphere Reserve was the first in India to be designated by UNESCO as part of the World Network of Biosphere Reserves. Almost half of the tribal population of Kerala resides in the Wayanad, which is in the Western Ghats. These tribes live in the forest and are known to be living there for a long time. Each tribe possesses its own culture, art, and tradition. Some of the tribes that reside in the forest of Wayanad include Adiyar, Kanaladi, Kandu Vadiyar, Paniyar and Thachanadar.
