One such beach in Alappuzha is the Mararikulam beach which is located between Alappuzha city and Kochi. Mararikulam beach in Alappuzha is one of the best examples of calm, serene and sandy beaches of Kerala.

I just made a journey through the famous Alappuzha - Changanacherry (AC) Road few days back and really met with some surprise water logging on the road. The AC road is one of the best road in this part of Kerala and it is a long and straight stretch of road which connects Alappuzha with Changanacherry. The road is of high quality and driving along this road is a dream for all drivers. Another thing that attracts people is the majestic natural beauty that is seen on either side of the road till it reaches Changanacherry. Both sides of the roads are made beautiful with the presence of long stretching paddy fields, toddy shops, occasional houses, rivers and boats. I was really enjoying the ride when suddenly I had to stop the car due to water logging. I am not sure how the water entered the road but I had to be careful while driving through the water. The name of the place was Mankombu and the water made it difficult to walk on foot and I was lucky that I was inside a car ...

If you are an avid traveller and plans to visit Alappuzha in Kerala, then better you plan your travel package before June 2012, otherwise you would be wasting your money after that. The main reason is that the monsoon season hits Kerala on the first week of June and from there onwards it would be in full strength till September. Since Alappuzha is a low lying plain land, the rainy season would make a mess of it and it would be really unworthy of planning a tour travel package to Alappuzha during that time. Once the monsoon arrives in Alappuzha, most of the areas in Alappuzha would be experiencing water logging and you would not be able to enjoy the beauty of Alappuzha at its best. More over many epidemics breaks out in Alleppey during the monsoon season leading to serious health issues. Taking all these factors into consideration, most of the travellers dare to make a trip to Alappuzha between June to September of every year. Due to the heavy monsoon rainfalls in Alappuzha during t...

Alappuzha is one of the major travel destinations in Kerala and is well known for its amazing back waters and panoramic beauty. I have travelled through Alappuzha on a large number of occasions for various reasons. Even though Alappuzha as a whole is a beautiful travel destination, the one thing that’s needs to be changed immediately is the traffic system inside the city of Alappuzha. Alappuzha town is somewhat old fashioned with old buildings and roads which make it look like an old city. Due to the old fashioned architecture of the city, the traffic inside the city becomes unbearable at some times. During the peak hours the traffic becomes so congested that we would never think of coming to Alappuzha ever again. The authorities have to think about a better plan which makes the traffic inside Alappuzha town smoother. Otherwise it would leave a bad impact on the tourists coming to Alappuzha from different parts of the World. The outer areas of Alappuzha town do not experience this ...

In a move to strengthen the health zone of Alappuzha, the authorities have sanction 25 hitech ambulances which includes facilities such as ICU, ventilator, oxygen cylinders, automatic trolleys, stretchers and other life saving equipments. The services of these hitech ambulances can be availed 24 x 7 by dialing 108. There had been a huge shortage of ambulances in Alappuzha town and the introduction of hi tech ambulances are seen as a measure to solve the shortages of the ambulances. Once 108 is dialed, the hitech ambulances would rush to the accident spot or any other destination to offer their help. There would always be a ambulance driver and a technician inside the ambulance and this makes things more easy. The hitech ambulance is also expected to be much helpful for patients suffering from heart stroke as the ambulance has the most advanced equipments which can  serve the patients in a much better way. An hitech ambulance was allowed for alappuzha district one year back, but...
