Amazing Kerala: Beautiful one day, perfect the next

Kerala rightly known as the God’s Own Country is an ideal place to be in with someone special. Equipped with surpassing natural beauty, superb beaches, breathtaking backwaters, rich cultural heritages, arts and crafts, dance and music, food, lush green hill stations and expertise in traditional ayurvedic treatment and rejuvenation practices, Kerala has become a major holiday destination in the world.
The serene beaches are one the major destinations worth going to and enjoying while in Kerala. Flanked on the western coast by the Arabian Sea, this Queen of Arabian Sea is blessed with a long coastline of approximately 580 km (360.39 miles). Kovalam beach near Thiruvananthapuram (Trivandum) is among the first beaches in Kerala to attract tourists. It is today the most visited tourist destination in the state. Other famous beaches are Alappuzha Beach, Nattika beach (in Thrissur), Vadanappilly beach (Thrissur), Cherai Beach, Kappad,  Marari beach, Fort Kochi, Varkala Beach, etc.
The other major attraction in Kerala is its tranquil Backwaters. The backwaters in Kerala are a chain of lagoons and lakes lying parallel to the Arabian Sea coast (also known as the Malabar Coast). These were formed by the action of waves and shore currents creating low barrier islands across the mouths of the many rivers flowing down from the Western Ghats range. Alleppey, popularly called the “Venice of the East” has a large network of canals that stroll through the town. Another important backwater destination is Kumarakom. The backwater network includes five large lakes, major and popular ones being Ashtamudi Kayal and Vembanad Kayal.  Kumarakom is also famous for its bird sanctuary.
Kerala houseboats in the backwaters are one of the most prominent tourist attractions in Kerala. The Houseboats of Kerala are converted Kettuvalloms. (In Malayalam language “kettu” means tying and “vallam” means boat). Each houseboat is constructed using the ancient principles and techniques of boat building by the local carpenters using jack-wood, bamboo mats, sticks, and coir mats. Coir ropes are used for tying the wooden boards together. In the past, these Kettuvaloms were used for cargo transportation in the backwaters of Kerala, especially for transporting rice from the highly fertile paddy fields to the major port of Kollam, Allappey and Cochin. Nowadays, these are converted into tourist attractions by constructing rooms to accommodate the tourists.  Today a houseboat has got all the comforts of a good hotel including furnished bedrooms, modern toilets, cozy living rooms, a kitchen and even a balcony. They also host modern electrical amenities like LCD TV, DVD, micro-oven, air conditioner etc. A Kerala houseboat is the perfect way to experience the calm and unique ecology of the Kerala backwaters.
The lush hill stations of Kerala add further gems to the crown of glorious Kerala. The wildest hilly lands are covered with dense forests, while other regions lie under aromatic spice, tea and coffee or other forms of cultivation. Popular hill stations in the region include Munnar, Devikulam, Nelliyampathi, Peermade, Ponmudi, Thenmala, Vagamon, and Wayanadand Kottanchery Hills.
For those looking for a Wild adventure, Kerala offers the apt environment. The important wildlife centers in Kerala are Periyar Tiger Reserve in Thekkady, Eravilulam National Park in Munnar, Chinnar Wildlife Sanctuary, Muthaga Wildlife Sanctuary, Silent Valley National Park, Kumarakom Bird Sanctuary, Thattekkat Bird Sanctuary etc.
On a Kerala trip; one should also not miss witnessing the amazing performance of dance and arts by various artists. Native performing arts include kalaripayattu (Kerala martial art), koodiyattom, kathakali, koothu (akin to stand-up comedy), mohiniaattam (“dance of the enchantress”), thullal, padayani, and theyyam. Other arts include chavittu nadakom, oppana (originally from Malabar), which combines dance, rhythmic hand clapping, and ishal vocalisations.

Since there is a lot to see and enjoy in Kerala, one should plan ahead the duration of travel and the month of travel to fully benefit from the trip. The tour package should be designed and planned by a well experienced tour operator so as to have a
convenient, hassle free, and memorable travel.

Alwar – Green District of Rajasthan

Rajasthan is illustrious for stark desert land but perhaps Alwar is the only place where greenery rules the landscape. Before independence it was known as Matsyanagar Agar, the kingdoms of Alwar, Bharatpur, Dholpur and Karauli were merged to form the short-lived ‘United Kingdom of Matsya.’ There are different school of thoughts on the origin of the modern name Alwar. Some say it is a corruption of Salwapur, Salwa being the name of a tribe that lived here. Others say it is a corruption of Aravalpur, Aravallis being the hill range running through the district. Many believe that Alwar is erstwhile Alpur, which was founded by Maharaja Alaghraj in 1049. Whatever the beliefs and historians thoughts are, Alwar is undoubtedly one of the biggest tourist attractions of Rajasthan.

Alwar town is small but not less than any modern town of India. You can see girls riding scooters, cycles and almost every house has some sort of private vehicle. Alwar town has no public transport, but cycle rickshaws are all there. These are cheapest transport available in the town. Alwar bus stand is just outside the main residential town and travellers can get buses to almost all parts of Rajasthan. The city stretches west from the railway line to the hills crowned by the 10th century Bala Qila. Most of the tourist places like City Palace and Moosi Maharani ki Chhatri are spread far from the town.

Things to do and see in Alwar

• A five-storey medieval tom, Fateh Jung ka Gumbad outclasses all it contemporaries in Delhi, barring the tomb of Emperor Humayun. It is the easternmost of Alwar’s monuments, lying just across the railway line by a pedestrian over bridge, close to the Bharatpur Road. The tomb stands amidst a walled garden, which houses a school. The guard who unbars the steps leading up to the mausoleum seldom turns up before 9 am.

• City Palace – This is the most visited tourist place in Alwar. It is a large complex, which is accessible through a gateway with projecting balconies on either side. Beyond the gate lies an open ground with Krishna temples on all four sides. The City Palace, Sagar, a tank, and Moosi Rani ki Chhatri are located just behind these temples. The grandeur structure of the palace is renowned for its beautiful architecture and ornamentation of late 18th century. The palace was built by Raja Bakhtawar Singh in 1793. The City Palace is now become safe house for government officials. The office of Alwar Collectorate and the police superintendent’s offices are present in the palace. Best view is from the top from the palace, which is also good museum to look on.

• Bala Qila – The oldest of all forts and palaces in Alwar and guard atop Alwar. It is believed that the qila was built in 10th century by the Nikhumba Rajputs. The fort spreads over the surrounding hills, which, along with the nearby lakes, are Alwar’s most alluring assets. During the rainy season, the place is shrouded by bright green but rocky and rusty during summer.
