Kottayam
Travel Guide |
| |
Kottayam, located in the southern part of
Kerala is an important commercial centre of
India, producing a large chunk of cash
crops. A beautiful town situated in the
hills, most of India's natural rubber
originates from the acres of well-kept
plantations of Kottayam.
The town is also home to the Rubber Board,
one of the country's Primary Commodities
Board. Situated in the 'Backwater' circuit,
the populace of Kottayam is marked by the
presence of the Syrian Christian community.
Well known for its churches, Kottayam
sandwiched between serene palm-fringed
backwaters on the west and the Western Ghats
on the east, provides some of Kerala's
finest natural scenes.
