The 'where is this' thread! Help identify places from pics & videos

Frequently, we go 'wow' seeing a place in the movies or advertisements. There are quite a few times that I have not been able to conclusively identify the place. Can we use this thread to discuss such places.



I go first. What temple is this ?

This particular spot was seen in few recent malayalam movies. I think it's somewhere in kuttikkanam, Kerala. Any idea?

I cannot identify the temple from the video, but it sure isn't Kapaleeshwarar temple.

The temple in this scene is Vattamalai Murugan Temple in Tamil Nadu.

This is one of the six reputed hill temples dedicated to Lord Muruga ("Murugan") and has the special distinction of being visited by the the 15th century Tamil poet Arunagirinathar.
