Unlike the rest of the travelogues I have written nowadays, this one can seem a fragment of my emotional fantasies. I would love to convey to you just how much beauty, tranquillity, and happiness for life awaiting to be found in the honeymoon haven, far away from the madding crowd! As for me personally, it had been an adventure so preciously private I couldn't have discovered that the power of words to explain it for decades, had it not been for my husband's continuous insistence to pen my thoughts down on it. I dedicate this one to my love, his constant affection, and love, which has held us tight towards each other amidst all chances of existence!

What do I say when love was in its tranquil form, the roaring waves of these shores, the hushed prayers within the temples, and amidst the exotic splendour of coconut trees? I'd always dreamed of a perfect date from the side of a pristine beach. Together with all the plantations flirting with our toes. Along with all the waves gushing to state the launch of a new, exciting togetherness. Together with quiet combined with soft whisperings. And believe me or not, all it came true in my entire life, not on my very first date, however within my honeymoon, at Kovalam beach, Kerala!! How can I forget the time?

Speaking, beaches around India have only fascinated me since my youth. Additionally, since both of us had only decided upon seeing someplace, that wouldn't be crowded quite a standard criteria for honeymooners!. Precisely the same time are exotic enough to be remembered for life. We reluctantly agreed upon travelling to Kovalam and researching the exquisite splendour of this Alleppey backwaters. While I've heard some folks say that shores are the same everywhere, I felt it isn't so in Kerala. And why don't you? Bound from the exotic Arabian Sea on its southern side, using its enormous coastline extending around 600 km, we may safely state the small country of Kerala homes some of the most magnificent beaches of India, or instead, of this planet!

Discussing the beaches, I do not personally understand why the Kerala beaches have taken a backseat when Indian tourists are involved. Along with the beauty of the majority of Kerala, beaches is how most of these are tremendously scenic sites while simultaneously being silent and calm, less infested with the seasonal audience. In each of the three times we spent at the Kerala beaches such as Kovalam, we only celebrated their tranquillity, seclusion, and virgin beauty, and shared a few of the very divine minutes. We saw the little, quaint community fishing villages, a few previous piers that extend into the sea, lagoons, vast lakes, and many freshwater ponds.

In the Kovalam beach, we appreciated the sight of a little village down the coast, the beautiful Lighthouse coast. In the Shankhamugam shore on the flip side, we were lucky to encounter one of the most magnificent sunset views amidst the scenic surroundings of a popular haunt of sunset watchers. Another intriguing coast, the Thirumullavaram Beach, was an ideal morning escape. We began our afternoon taking a look at the swaying coconut palm trees, and seeing local fishers who put out to the sea seeking their catch! Best honeymoon places in Kerala.

On the flip side, we're becoming awed by the sparkling beauty of all of the shores. Although on the flip side, relishing utter awareness of delight taking a look at the comparison between the blue colours of this water and the skies! There was a sting of heaven everywhere around us, which was becoming more serene with all the nectar of our candy togetherness!

Our insecurities from the Sree Padmanabhaswamy Temple: Like I had heard and read some fantastic stories about the hoary temple convention in the Southern State of Kerala, we were quite determined that our trip would be incomplete without visiting at least a few of those. Moreover, like the majority of the recently married Hindu brides, I also had any sentimental leanings towards supplying prayers and puja' into the Lords for our lives, our potential, and our protracted togetherness! I could still clearly remember the day we paid a brief visit to the beautiful Padmanabhaswamy temple, even when we were only fascinated with its distinctive temple architecture along with the silent serenity within the massive temple borders!

The afternoon started with our utter wonder in researching the mythical structure of this Padmanabhaswamy temple and the calm setting of divinity inside. Among the most magnificent and most ancient temples of Kerala, it's been vibrant with heritage, having been around for many years with the music and arts. The temple's most awe-inspiring sight has been its shrine, showcasing an imposing image of Vishnu from the Anantasayanam position; a picture which we saw through three doors before the shrine.

It was a sunny Sunday afternoon, and also the massive gathering in the front of the shrine was sufficient to inform us of the spiritual fervour of those folks there! But beyond the utter spiritual pursuits of individuals, we're becoming more awed by the Dravidian style of this temple structure, its 100 feet high Gopuram also constructed in early Dravidian style and its glorious mural paintings and rock carvings. To me personally, the temple was intriguing, to say the least, despite its rigorous worship protocols, highlighting entirely about the sanctity, ease, and also a prevailing naturalism that indicated the sin of Lord Padmanabhaswamy.

The afternoon was the 6th December dawn forced a promising one after temple's usual calmness. We had hardly any time at our disposal at Tiruvanandapuram, the temple, as we needed to place out for another great travel, a night in a sweet, scenic houseboat, exploring the beautiful splendour of this Alleppey backwaters currently called Alappuzha Backwaters. Along with the bunch of exquisite little islands in the area. We'd already reserved a one-night cruise onto a houseboat that will let's explore the wonder of Alappuzha, and we'd spend the night at the quiet tranquillity of the backwaters. The idea was so intimate when we had been hoping to get to the coastal township of Alleppey. We did not even see our driver got confused with all the leadership, and we were becoming quite late compared to our scheduled time!

Never had I seen a heavenly sight everywhere! Visitors All over the World have called the Alappuzha since the Venice of the East. Appreciating the incredibly intimate dusk with all the view of this enchanting backwaters as well as the raindrops that had made the atmosphere more from the world, we stepped within our little, cosy houseboat for our backwater ride after dusk. Sailing across the Kettuvallam houseboat throughout the enchanting backwaters of Alappuzha has been the adventure of life.

You will find such fishing nets of the regional fishermen, the flock of ducks swimming across the banks and small birds flying across the sky, smelling profoundly of their vibrant life from the countryside of their bewitching Kuttinad!

Late in the noon, we decided to experience the bunch of small islands on the Vembanad Lake, which can be very much part of the Kuttanad region. We have been advised the ideal way to observe the birds of the Kumarakom sanctuary is a boat excursion. But we did not have sufficient time for the boat trip but researched to our complete the lush greenery of a few islands and the tranquil beauty of the Vembanad lake which juts to the mainland at a succession of lagoons and streams.
