Azhagappapuram

India / Tamil Nadu / Suchindram /

Azhagappapuram is located about five miles northwest of Kanyakumari, the southern tip of India. It falls under Agasteeswaram taluk of Tamil Nadu.

With St. Antony’s church standing imposingly in the middle, Azhagapappuram epitomizes pristine beauty, being surrounded by an enchanting landscape of lush green trees, dense coconut groves, picturesque rice fields and bunds holding bluish pure water.

Nature has endowed this village and its surrounding areas with all its fauna and flora. The gentle breeze blowing across this place has a waft of soothing and friendly fragrance.
Azhagapappuram is renowned for faith, righteousness, education, political and social awareness. This town has created a string of priests and nuns who renounced frivolous comforts to serve God, the poor and destitute.

This is actually called as "kutty(small) Kuwait".
