Lake Vembanad take a cruise along India's longest lake

Kerala is referred to as Gods own land' for no coincidence, adorned with culture and blanketed in lush vegetation one must admit that God did spend a little more time here. The fertile soil is evident through the greenery, paddy fields, spice crops, tea plantations and verdant green pastured. Boasting a hill country and pristine beaches, Kerala is among India's most favoured destinations to spend a holiday. Not forgetting the divine local cuisine one can sample, this city is one you may not forget easily. There are many attractions and things to do while on holiday in Kerala. Among those that are most favoured are visits to the Elephant Camp, the shimmering Varkala beaches, to soak up the culture of Cochin Fort, watch wild elephants and birds at Periyar Wildlife Sanctuary and to capture the ritualistic dance called Kannur. Traversing the backwaters that network through Kerala on a houseboat is a tourist activity that just about everyone should try out. Known as India's largest and among the largest freshwater lakes in Asia, the Lake Vembanad is a picturesque sight. Located around 15 kilometers from Kottayam town, there are several tourist activities to partake in. A cruise along the lake in a houseboat is among the most preferred choice. There are both luxury and basic cruise options available, catering to wallets and purses of every size and type. Houseboats are unique to this part of Kerala and in the bygone years were used for human dwellings and the transportation of goods. The typical houseboat is about 60 to 70 feet long and made of wooden planks. Slow moving, a cruise in a houseboat along the Lake Vembanad will take you closer to nature. A spectacular array of flora and fauna that inhabit these waters will greet you. The Kumarakom Bird Sanctuary on the eastern banks of the lake is ideal for the bird enthusiast to spy on migratory birds and those indigenous to the region. Whilst roaming around the boathouse and enjoying a cool beverage is equally enjoyable. Visit Lake Vembanad from the centrally placed Kerala resort, The Zuri Kumarakom Kerala Resort & Spa and enjoy the best the city has to offer.
