Keerimalai pond history: This pond has become a miracle for two mice that lived in India. Although the trunks of these two mice are human, their faces are animalistic. One catfish has a muzzled face and the other has a horse face. In the meantime, they have received a message that there is a pond in Sri Lanka that will immediately turn their faces back to human form. So these two mice came across the sea to bathe in this pool. Legend has it that their faces later became real human beings. Many Hindus believe that bathing in this pool cures various skin ailments.
