Alappuzha
Backwaters Travel Guide |
| |
Referred to as the Venice of the East,
Alappuzha has always enjoyed a unique place
in the maritime history of Kerala. Today, it
is famous for its boat races, backwater
holidays, beaches, marine products and coir
industry.
With the Arabian Sea on the west and a vast
network of lakes, lagoons and fresh water
rivers crisscrossing it, Alappuzha is a
district of immense natural beauty.
Alappuzha is home to diverse animal and bird
life. By virtue of its proximity to the sea,
the town has always enjoyed a unique place
in the maritime history of Kerala.
Today, Alappuzha has grown in importance as
a backwater tourist centre, attracting
several thousands of foreign tourists each
year. Alappuzha is also famous for its boat
races, houseboat holidays, beaches, marine
products and coir industry.
A singular characteristic of this land is
the region called Kuttanad. A land of lush
paddy fields, Kuttanad is called the Rice
Bowl of Kerala and is one of the few places
in the world where farming is done below sea
level.
Alappuzha beach is a popular picnic spot.
The pier, which extends into the sea here,
is over 137 years old. Entertainment
facilities at the Vijaya Beach Park add to
the attraction of the beach. There is also
an old lighthouse nearby which is greatly
fascinating to visitors. |
