The “Niagara Falls Of India” In Thrissur, Kerala
80 ft high and 300 ft wide, the Athirappilly
Falls is located 60 km from the
district of Thrissur in Kerala. Also known as the “Niagara Falls of India” this
frothy wonder flows from the Anamudi mountains in the Western Ghats. The
water then flows through the Vazhachal Forest that’s bountiful in its lush
greenness towards the Arabian sea. The trail forms a picturesque view
panning tall mountains, the blue of the sky and the surrounding evergreens.
The Athirappilly falls have formed a thrilling backdrop for some of the most
widely known films such as Baahubali and Dil Se. Your first sight of the falls
will also lend you a clear view of the Sholayar Peaks, a range of shouldering
hills to the flowing water. This is typically a bird lover’s paradise housing
the endangered Hornbill species. So don’t forget to pack those binoculars.
Alleppey, Backwater
Backwaters in Alleppey, Alleppey Overview
The Alleppey backwaters was earlier used as a mode of
transportation, fishing and agriculture and have evolved over time
as a tourism hotspot. The main attraction of the Alleppey
backwaters is the overnight journey in the famous Kerala
houseboats. These houseboats are as comfortable as any hotel
room - sometimes even more luxurious, and as a bonus, you get the
open deck.
Sunset viewing, bird watching, village visits, stargazing, witnessing
the everyday life of the farmers and fishermen along with visiting
the various regions that specialise in the manufacture of certain
products like toddy, coir, handicrafts - Alleppey is a handful of an
experience to have.
Alleppey is rightfully called the Venice of the East. With its labyrinth
of brackish lagoons and interconnected lakes, Alleppey or
Alappuzha is no less than the famous European city - neither in
beauty nor in history and culture. Hire your boat and get started
along the flow of the stream to soak in its beauty.
