Kochi, Kochi Cool!




Located on the southern coast of India, Kerala has wonderful sights that are unique only to ‘God's own country'. Years of external influences as the epicentre of spice trades have made this town a unique destination for culture, experience and panoramic views that will definitely mesmerise you. Just read on and get ready for your own Kochi adventure!


Brought over by Macao early settlers, the sight of massive Chinese Fishing Nets dangling above the calm waters near Fort Kochi as the wind catches it, making them dance like maidens in the sunlight, paints an unforgettable picture. Because right there, you know that there's something magical about this city.

 


On the backwaters of Kochi, you'll find magnificent boathouses that are more than comfortable for a night or two’s stay on the calm waters. Here you can watch the daily lives of the locals by the shoreline as you drift with the currents.




Unique to Kerala, this wondrous Indian dance-drama is portrayed by elaborately costumed dancers that let their body movements do the talking, re-enacting the tales of Lord Krishna. First founded in the 17th century, this dance is still a highly prized cultural performance and quite a sight to behold.



With daily flights to this lovely land full of ancient charms and mystical legends, Kochi will captivate even the weariest travellers.
