The name Thiruvananthapuram' means the 'abode of Anantha' - referring to the sacred snake god on whom Lord Vishnu reclines. The British found the name too much of a mouthful and anglicised it to Trivandrum'. The capital of Kerala, this unpretentious city is clean, green and has a leisurely feel to it. The Padmanabha Swamy Temple that holds the deity of the royal family of Travancore is an important landmark. |

This city was built on seven low hills, a similarity it famously shares with Rome. It has an interesting mix of commercial streets, tree-lined avenues, historical and modern buildings, ancestral homes and a long coastline washed by the Arabian Sea. There are no large industries, but Thiruvananthapuram does have its share of professionals and businessmen, and with the advent of the IT industry, a rising population of 'techies'. However, the Secretariat and the government offices still form the backbone of the town. |

Agasthayarkoodam
Since the climbing of Agasthyarkoodam was an important item in our itinerary we deviated once again to Neyyar dam in the evening after the soujourn at Udayagiri fort. We stationed at Neyyar guest house for the night and started our climbing before sunrise under the guidance of a local guide. Located 32 kms. away from Neyyar Dam, Agasthya Malai or Agasthyarkoodam, a dazzling peak in the Western Ghats of south India enjoys a magnificient height of 1,890 metres above sea level.

There is a full size statue of Agasthya at the top of the peak and the devotees are allowed to make offerings there themselves. Women are not allowed up the peak as it is believed that sage Agasthya was a bachelor and hence he dislikes the presence of women. The lower elevations of the peak harbour rare medicinal plants and herbs. we reached the summit by late in the evening and halted in a makeshift camp built by our guide.

Here, by the river, there is a temple dedicated to lord Krishna with the famous ammachiplavu-the Mother Jack Tree - in the temple premises. This tree happens to associate itself with the history of Travancore.

This is the usual platform for art forms like dance and music. The beams of the roof are shaped like horses head, an architectural marvel indeed; hence the name ‘Kuthiramalika’. The sheer artistic excellence called ‘Kuthiramalika’ made us dumbfounded.

Padmanabhapuram Palace
When stepped into the Padmanabhapuram palace complex we felt like entering to a bygone era. Though the place is in Tamil Nadu the palace complex is under the protection of Kerala state. Our historical know how was boosted by the archaeological guide in the palace. It was the residence of the Travancore Kings of the 16th centruy. The interior and the exterior of the palace radiate the ancient majesty of the sculptural perfection and beauty of carvings. the entire structure of the palace proclaims the uniquencess of the traditional architectural culture of Travancore. Beautiful wall paintings, wooden statues and the black granite floorings were a feast to the eyes, no doubt. The inner walls testify the 18th century tradition of wall painting. We amazed to the core on the vastness of the palace with 108 rooms and it took quite sometime to cover the entire place. There are magnificent wooden sculptures carved on the roof. ‘Mantrashala’ in the first floor was used as the council hall. Glittering mica brightens the entire area. We could not but wonder at the natural air conditioning methods making use of the roots of herbs dipped in water and other traditional architectural devices. The ‘ekantamandapam’ adorned with paintings on the floor is another instance of architectural excellence. There is also a discarded tunnel in the palace. The elegance of the Pandya-style pillars of the ‘Nruthamandapam’ in front of the sanctum sanctorum of goddess Saraswathi is noteworthy. The countless rare wall paintings are accompanied by fresco paintings and Greek art of paintings. This is a place where history wedded to artistic skill.
The Archaeological Museum near the palace is a must-see place and we spend some time there by augmenting our historical knowledge. Historical documents in ‘Vattezhuthu’ and ‘brahmi’ alphabet led us to a store house of ancient wisdom.

After a ride of more than half an hour or so our Land Rover screeched to a halt in front of the gigantic gate of the sucheendram temple of international fame. It is 13kms. behind Kanyakumari. It is one of the few temples in the country where the trinity Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva are represented and worshipped with equal importance. (On one side there is Lord Shiva of Sucheendram; beyond there is the virgin goddess Parvathy in the Kumari Amman temple of Kanyakumari - the legendary male - female deities) Sucheendram temple s a seven - storeyed structure with huge halls supported by pillars of Tamil artistic style.

Thriparappu waterfalls
35 kms. off the city we came across the Thriparappu waterfalls. We soothed ourselves by taking a bath in the falls. nOt only our bodies but our inner selves also were caressed by the powerful flow of water in the clean and hygienic surroundings. We restrained our selves from enjoying a swim in the nearby pool as it is meant for the children. The Kodayar River flowing by the nearby Mahadeva (Siva) temple serves as the source of the waterfalls. After the leap and fall the river lashes against the rocks scattering water drops all around. It was a ravishing spectacle and we spend some time chatting with the river by relaxing on the stone platform nearby. We offered prayers at the Kumara Kovil, an ancient Subrhamanya temple situated at the foot of the Veli hills. The marital union of Muruka and Valli is the important festival of this kovil and it is celebrated in the Tamil month Painkuni, described the natives. The idol in the Kovil is popularly known as ‘Manavalakumaran’.

Vattakkotta
We were particular about a visit to the fort of ‘Vattakkotta’ located on the brim of the shore five kms. from Kanyakumari on the way to Thirunalveli. We had a brief description about the ‘Vattakkotta’ from the guide at the Padmanabhapuram palace. The circular ‘Vattakkotta’, built in the 18th century is in circular shape and hence the name. We spent sometime on the ramparts of the fort watching the splashing of waves on the huge walls of the fort.
Our next destination was ‘Udayagirikkotta’ 34 kms. behind Kanyakumari. The fort was built by Marthanda Varma, the builder of modern Travancore. In the fort lies the tomb of De Lenoy, the Dutch captain who later became Marthanda Varma’s confidant following the defeat of the Dutch in the battle of Kulachal.

Vivekanandappara
After breakfast we sailed to the ‘Sreepada Rock’ which is believed to bear the holy footprint of Devi Kanyakumari and the Vivekananda Rock where Swami Vivekananda sat in meditation. The serenity of Vivekananda Mandapam 500 mts. away from teh land tempted us to meditate there for a while. teh huge statue of Tiruvalluvar (133 ft) opened to the visitors on Ist January 2000 is another eye - catching thing. Later we visited the Gandhi Memorial and ‘Gandhi Mandapam’ the place where Gandhiji’s funeral ashes were displayed publicly before immersion. It is constructed as per the Indian temple architectural pattern of medieval times.
The heart warming sights at Kanyakumari stretch beyond the shore. We visited the The famous Bay Watch Water Theme Park near the sunset point where we were enthralled at the wax statutesof luminaries kept in the wax museum.
