About Alleppey (Alappuzha)

Alleppey, officially known as Alappuzha, is a city in the state of Kerala, India, famed for its network of interlinking canals, lagoons, beaches, and backwaters. A hub for Keralaâ€™s backwater tourism, it's often referred to as the 'Venice of the East.' The picturesque city is nestled amidst lush greenery and is replete with paddy fields, and coconut groves, enhancing its scenic beauty. Alleppey is renowned for its houseboat cruises, which offer an immersive experience of the tranquil backwaters. It's also the venue for the prestigious Nehru Trophy Boat Race held on the Punnamada Lake, which draws a large number of tourists every August. The Alappuzha Beach and the 150-year-old Alappuzha Lighthouse are some of the top attractions. The region's rich culture is reflected in its traditional Kuttanad cuisine and the annual temple festivals. As a district of immense natural beauty and cultural significance, Alleppey holds a special place in Kerala's tourism.
