This the southernmost point in mainland India. There is no land between this point and Antartica. The statue is of the Tamil poet Thiruvalluvar. The shrine next to it is the Vivekananda Rock Memorial.
Beautiful view of Sun rise in Bay of Bengal. Never come back from Kanyakumari without enjoying this moment. Vivekananda Rock Memorial is shown in black. Vivekananda Rock Memorial is must see place of Kanyakumari.
