About Poonkudil Mana

Poonkudil Mana is a traditional ancestral house at Vallikkapatta in the Mankada area of Malappuram district, Keralam. Keralam Tourism describes the mana as an old Brahmin residence known both for traditional Keralam architecture and for a hereditary system of treatment practised by the family. Official Keralam Tourism festival material places Poonkudil Mana in Mankada Block Panchayat and gives the address as Vallikkapatta, PIN 679324; Keralam Revenue records place Mankada within Perinthalmanna taluk.

For tourism purposes, the site is best understood as a cultural and architectural landmark connected with a distinctive local healing tradition, not as a substitute for modern medical care. Visitors interested in nalukettu-style domestic heritage, family histories and traditional knowledge may find the place particularly interesting. Because the property has an active institutional or residential character, access to interiors, consultations or specific areas may be subject to current rules and should be confirmed directly before a visit.
