Neelakurinji in Munnar, Kerala
Neelakurinji or Strobilanthes Kunthiana blooms in a bunched style on distinctive inflorescence stocks once in every 12 years in the Silent Valleys of Munnar, Kerala. Here’s a picture taken in 2006. We have to wait till 2018 to see next full bloom.

Muttar – Aleppey (Alappuzha) – Very nice place for picnic. Full greenary and lake is near by. Photos taken in last may


Backwaters, Kumarakam, Kottayam. If you like, you can spend the whole day & night in houseboat. Affordable packages are available. They will provide you food for 3 times. Fresh fish (karimeen) and kappa are the main items in the menu.

Will post more pictures later.

I visited Kerala only once in my life. That was one of the best trip and one of the best places i visited in my life. We lived in a boat house and the house was totally built above water. In nights you can hear the sound of fish jumping. Only problem i had was the mosquitoes other than that i had a lot of fun.
I lived to go around the city so early morning around 6.00 AM i went for jogging wow the place looks so green and traditional. I am sure its not possible to see a place like that anywhere near chennai the city l live.
Kerala is so sceneric and green but it lacks in entertainment. I don’t see much opportunities to have fun in a place like that. Moving boat house is fun though

the beauty of kerala is none of the above. it is harthal’s!!. What a beautiful day the harthal day will be? The shops will be closed and not a single human being on the road. the people who came by train or plane made to stand there in the road, as there is no means of travelling. What a beautiful day? it will be. The harthal supporters throwing stones at the vehicle which is running inspite of harthal.
Sorry for the condition of kerala because of these ugly politicians.
