7. Edakkal Caves, Kerala
Edakkal caves on the western side of Ambukuthimala aka Ambukuthy Hills are a set of two natural caves located about six kilometers east of Ambalawayal in the Wayanad district of Kerala. Edakkal literally means "the stone in between" and is a beautiful formation of nature. The mesmerizing prehistoric rock etchings found on the walls of these caves have drawn the serious attention of archeologists and historians worldwide. The caves are situated at a general elevation of some 1200 metres above the Mean Sea Level (MSL). In 1890, Fred Fawcett, the then Superintendent of Police of the Malabar District, explored these caves. It was an exhilarating discovery, as these were the first specimens of abraded drawings found in India.
