Washed by the silvery waves of the Arabian Sea and criss-crossed
by backwaters, Alappuzha lies to the west of
Pathanamthitta. Mirror-still lagoons, picture- book
lakesides, palm-fringed canals and shores bustling with
glimpses from the day-to-day life in the countryside
have earned the district the title of ‘Venice of the
East’. Alappuzha has emerged as one of the hot spots of
the millennium. |

what Kerala’s all about!
Kerala is such a vast and diverse place that it is
impossible to fit everything about it onto a website!
Do you have an extra little something to add to make
our site even more informative, colorful and vibrant?
Or do you have a special little tit-bit or story about
the place you grew up in?
