#awesomepic The Backwaters of Kerala are essentially a group of 5 lagoons that are linked by natural and manmade canals. These waterways were mainly used for trade during the older times and are known for their scenic beauty and a rich variety of flora, fauna, avi-fauna and marine life. #awesomepic

I'd like to introduce you to a wonderful backwater cruise that you can experience in Kochi, India 🛶 * In the southern Indian state of Kerala, there are backwaters, a complex water town with rivers. The area around Alleppey is particularly famous, with over 100 canals. A popular activity is cruising the backwaters in a rowboat 🚣♀️ Time passes slowly, so I'm glad I went ❤️ * ■1-day trip details Drive from Fort Kochi to the waterside area (departs at 8:00, 1 hour 15 minute drive) ↓ Get on the first boat at Murinjapuzha and cruise the larger canal 🚣 ↓ Stop by a village to see how coconut shells are processed into ropes 🥥 ↓ Lunch: Banana leaf curry meal 🍛 ↓ Change to a slightly smaller boat and cruise the narrower waterway 🛶 ↓ Tea time 🫖 ↓ Drive back to Fort Kochi (arrived after 4pm) ※We went to Murinjapuzha, which is closer to Kochi, not Alleppey. If you go from Kochi, it's recommended because the travel time is short ☺️ #Introducing amazing views overseas #keralabackwater #Backwater trip #kochi #Kochi #Indian girls trip #Indian trip #South India

A must do experience is to stay in a boat house in Allepey, Kerala, India. They ll sail through backwaters and you'd be able to nearby villages, biodiversity etc. #boathouse #allepey #kerala

#Relaxing is the word for this #adventure. I was told to head over to the #Backwaters when in #Kerala and hop on a traditional #houseboat. Although slightly touristy, it was definitely enjoyable. After enduring the epic hassle of maneuvering through local traffic during my trip, the slow life on the quiet green canals were a welcome respite. The local local #banana-leaf meal was the cherry on top. #India #WinterGetaway #wintergetaway
