Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Dhanwantari Ashram

Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Dhanwantari Ashram is located at Neyyar Dam P.O. in Thiruvananthapuram district and is part of the international Sivananda Yoga Vedanta tradition. Keralam Tourism lists the centre as a yoga training institution, while Sivananda’s own information identifies the Neyyar Dam address with PIN 695572. The ashram offers programmes such as yoga vacations, teacher training, meditation and related spiritual study in a residential environment structured around daily practice.

It is therefore different from a conventional tourist attraction: visitors generally come for organised programmes, courses, retreats or approved stays rather than to wander through the campus casually. The green setting near Neyyar Dam adds to the retreat atmosphere and allows travellers to combine spiritual practice with the natural attractions of the Kattakada highlands. Anyone planning a stay should confirm current admission, accommodation, programme and visitor rules directly with the ashram.
