    The statue itself is quick to see, but if you have a bit of extra time, walk to the nearby Sri Adi Shankara Ashrama. It has a small library and a peaceful meditation corner that can give you a moment of calm. From there, a short stroll to the town centre lets you sample local coconut water and sweets just enough to stretch your legs before you hit the road again.
