Tharuvana is a village in Vellamunda Panchayath of Wayanad district, Kerala, India. The place is a junction connecting the Vythiri-Tharuvana road to State Highway 54 running between Kuttiady and Mananthavady.
The word "Tharuvana" is derived from Malayalam words "tharu" (meaning "please give") and Anna, as this place acted as a tax collection point during the British Raj.
The history of Tharuvana dates back to the Pazhassi Raja dynasty. Paliyana Manikadalayam temple four miles from Tharuvana is devoted to Lord Ayyapa on parithiyatukunnil and symbolizes the communal harmony in this region, which is open to all irrespective of caste, creed and religion.
