Why to visit Jatayu Earth's Centre
It redefines Kerala's haven as the first of its kind destination tourist programme! It was created in cooperation with the state government and was developed and designed by the Malay director Rajiv Anchal. The project is the first of its kind to use a BOT (Built-Operate-Transfer) model public-private partnership. The idea is to combine technology, history, epic, and the arts. It stands on the same hill where Jatayu, a demi-god, perished after being beaten by Ravana in a struggle to free Sita from his grasp. The park intends to offer the locals rainwater harvesting and sustainable energy sources in addition to serving as the main tourist attraction. In actuality, solar energy is also used to generate the project's necessary electricity.
Important facts to know about the Jatayu Park :
• After completion, the Jatayu Bird Sculpture, with its overall dimensions of 200 feet long, 150 feet wide, 70 feet high, and a coverage of 15000 square feet, is anticipated to be the largest stone sculpture in the world. In addition to being a huge sight, the Jatayu Sculpture is designed to evoke three strange feelings.
• Two floors of the museum housed inside the sculpture are devoted to depicting Treta Yuga, the time period during which Ramayan took place. Multidimensional digital photography and artwork from the same mythology will be displayed on the third floor.
• The theatre, which is housed inside the wings of the enormous bird sculpture, features an audio-visual presentation of the infamous battle between Ravana and Jatayu, the vulture who bears his name and perished while attempting to save Sita from Ravana.
• A staircase will lead to the top of the bird's-eye view, which will be situated in the Jatayu's eye. Visitors can enjoy the eye-pleasing panoramic view of Kerala's countryside and the Arabian Sea from this location.
