Thiruvanthapuram
Azure seas…silvery sand beaches…
intricately decorated temples…limitless stretches of greenery… mist shrouded mountains…
art galleries and museums…feasts and parades…Your voyage of Kerala begins in Thiruvananthapuram, the capital of Kerala, where history has a character and royalty has a charm. A city where the beautiful shadows of the past coexist with the present. A city that is calm and yet teeming with vigour. A city where tradition and modernity coexist beautifully.
Thiruvananthapuram is named after the sacred serpent Anantha or Adisesha on which Lord Padmanabha reclines. The Anantha Padmanaswamy temple is the most famous landmark of the city.
