The district is endowed by nature with several hills and mountains with rich herbs of medicinal value and minerals.  Maruthuvamalai, a hill in the district located near Kanyakumari, literally means medicinal hill, is referred to by Therapeutacs (Buddha Bikshus) who belonged to the period of Emperor Asoka, as having medical and spiritual heritage.  According to the tradition that the hill was a piece of the mountain Gandha Madhana dropped here while the mountain was carried by Hanuman to Lanka during the epic war between Rama and Ravana.  Rare medicinal herbs are available here in abundance.
