lonely planet calls it 'Paradise found on earth'. The National Geographic
Magazine refers to it as one of the fifty must see destinations
of the world...
Welcome to Kerala - The narrow verdant stretch of land sandwiched
between the mighty Western Ghats of peninsular India and the Arabian
sea. Through her 500 kilometer length, she is cut across by 44 pristine
rivers, all emanating from the mountains and flowing to the sea-washed
white sandy palm fringed beaches.
Kumbalangi is a village in central Kerala close to the port town
of Cochin. She has a vast stretch of backwaters connected by interlocking
waterways to the whole of Kerala. It is an ideal getaway location
for tourists from all over the world. What makes it more interesting
to visit Kumbalangi is that it is a virgin landscape unspoiled by
excessive presence of tourists. Here you will find the calm, quite
and tranquil landscape with warm inhabitants who depend on nature
for their survival. A day in Kumbalangi can be a festival to remember...a
treat for the eye and the mind. Kumbalangi is rich with exotic local
cuisines, boat building and masonry, manually operated coir looms,
fish farms etc.
