Sittanavasal :Sittanavasal is another important excursion destination from the city. The place is particularly famous for an ancient Jain monastery temple with exquisite fresco paintings inside the cave. The paintings here are exquisitely detailed pictures of animals, fish, ducks, people gathering lotuses from a pond and two dancing figures. Many of the structures here are of 9th century Pandyan period. Located at a distance of 58 kilometres from the city, Sittanavasal is also known for its pre-historic burial grounds.
