About Alleppey (Alappuzha)

Alleppey (Alappuzha) — affectionately hailed as the 'Venice of the East' by Lord Curzon — is the backwater paradise of Kerala. Characterized by an intricate labyrinth of palm-fringed canals, serene lagoons, and emerald paddy fields of Kuttanad (the lowest altitude farming region in India), Alleppey is world-famous for its traditional thatched Kettuvallam houseboats. Drift past village life on a private luxury houseboat, savor fresh Karimeen Pollichathu, and witness the thunderous excitement of the Nehru Trophy Snake Boat Race.
