| Alappuzha |
A golden streak of land woven with rivers, lakes, lagoons and canals, Alappuzha or Alleppy is labelled as the Venice of the East. Alappuzha, meaning the land between the sea and a network of rivers falling into it, evokes a sense of romance and beauty.Hemmed in by Kottayam and Pathanamthitta in the east, Ernakulam in the north and Kollam on the south, the district opens out onto the vast expanse of the Lakshadweep Sea on the west. Devoid of mountains and hills, rivers like the Manimala, Pamba and Achenkovil reign supreme in Alappuzha. While the Vembanad Lake covers the area from Alappuzha to Kochi, the Kayamkulum Lake flows through Kollam and Alappuzha.
Main Attractions:
Alappuzha’s amazing backwaters constitute its hallmark. The locale for the renowned snake boat races is its criss-crossing waterways. Tourists as well as the local population look forward to the event.
The Nehru Trophy Boat Race at Punnamada Kayal, the Payippad, the Thiruvanavandoor, Neerettupuram, Karuvatta and Thaikkoottam boat races are held around the time of Onam (see Festivals of India) in various areas of the district, well promoted by the tourism department of Kerala. Amongst them, the one that has caught the fancy of the tourist is the Nehru Trophy Boat Race. Known as Chundan Vallam (battleships of the Malayali kings), the 130ft long snake boats having 100 rowers, 4 helmsmen and 25 cheerleaders, are decorated with multicoloured silk umbrellas, and race past leaving thousands of spectators spellbound.
Its long coastline has secured it the status of an important centre for fishing and marine products. The district produces coir, and copra and has a flourishing carpet industry as well.
Alappuzha History:
Alappuzha has been the focus of trade and commerce from time immemorial. As early as the 1st century a.d., Christianity had gained a foothold in this district when St. Thomas, one of the twelve disciples of Jesus Christ, landed at Maliankara, present day Cranganore.
