• Alappuzha - A highlight of visiting Alappuzha is the enchanting houseboat cruise. The houseboats navigating the backwaters of Alappuzha are actually modern adaptations of the traditional Kettuvallams. In Malayalam, ‘Kettu’ means dwelling structures and ‘Vallom’ translates to boat. Historically, these kettuvallams, with their thatched roofs over wooden hulls, were used to transport large quantities of rice and spices.
