Kerala Backwaters

Kerala is a land blessed with scenic natural beauty and lush greenery. Replete with rivers and lakes, the place is a paradise for tourists. The first image that comes to mind while thinking about Kerala will be these backwaters. They have thus become the iconic attraction of Kerala tourism. The sightseeing and fishing opportunities that the lagoons and lakes provide make them attractive tourist destinations. People from all around the world come to relax and enjoy a great vacation to the backwaters of Kerala. More than scenic beauty, they offer an opportunity to see a variety of flora and fauna. The places like the Thannermukkom bund where a barrage separates saltwater and freshwater also invokes curiosity in the tourists because of the difference in the color of the water on either side of the bund.

Lying parallel to the Arabian sea coast, the backwaters in Kerala are a network of brackish lakes and lagoons. The blue hue of water combined with the emerald green shores makes it eye candy for anyone visiting the South-Indian state. Apart from being an attractive sight that lures the tourists, these backwaters are forms of transport and movement of goods. Totaling to 900 kilometers, the canals, inlets, and rivers form a commercial labyrinth of the state.  The picturesque beauty of the Kerala backwaters makes it a tourist hotspot. Many places like Kumarakom, Kuttanad, Ashtamudi, and so on are the best backwater locations in Kerala. Vembanad lake — the largest of all covering an area of 2033 square kilometers — is a majestic sight.  A unique ecosystem is formed in these backwaters where freshwater from rivers mixes with saltwater in the sea. It sustains many varieties of frogs, fishes, crabs, and oysters which are not commonly seen in other parts of the world.

Traditional boat races, which are conducted annually in the different lakes, are unique festive events in Kerala. The thrill and excitement of the manual boat race conducted in specially designed traditional boats surpass that of a horse race or a bullfight. Usually conducted between August to November, after the monsoon season, the races are thronged with great crowds of tourists from different parts of the world. Many luxury resorts line these beautiful lakes. For those who cannot afford to stay in them, there are homestays around the backwaters available at cheap rates.

A houseboat cruise through the backwaters is also an exciting activity for tourists visiting Kerala. Houseboats are the modern form of traditional Kettuvallams. They were used for accommodation as well as commerce in the olden days. The modern-day houseboats are big redesigned boats with all the facilities of a small hotel. They can be single or two-storied and have a kitchen, sit-outs, fully furnished bedrooms, and so on. Slowly cruising through the backwaters in these boats absorbing the beautiful sights and serene climate is a great experience. Hence tourists to the place invariably take a trip through the backwaters of Kerala.
