It is a historic place where Sadhu Kochukunju Upadesi, a well known revival leader and author of many well known Christian devotional songs, lived and served many decades for his 'Master'.
He preached the Word of God fervently to thousands around south India and Sri Lanka. He was a humble man of God, who lived accordingly. His songs are so powerful and touching our hearts. 'Dukhathinte Panapathram', 'Ente Daivam Mahathwathil', 'Ente Sampathennu Cholluvan', 'Ente Daivam Swarga simhasanam' are some among his many songs.

Sadhu Kochoonju Upadesi was a famous Malayalam Christian preacher, poet and composer. Kochoonju was a very distinctive person in appearance. He always carried an umbrella and his Bible where ever he went. His saintly life, self-control, self-denial, and commitment towards social issues made him a unique person. He liked to spend time alone with Bible; to him the Bible was not a book to be read but an instruction book which should be followed in day-to-day life. Much of his time he spent in reading.
