As you drive to the beautiful waterfalls of Athirappally, you will be overwhelmed by the scenic beauty of the surrounding countryside. A fertile landscape and winding roads through the hills, quiet hamlets, a festival of coconut and rubber plantations and babbling brooks will make you feel like being in an enchanted land!

3. Vadakkumnathan Temple:

Vadakkumnathan Temple stands majestically on an elevated hill in the center of Thrissur. One of the largest and oldest temples of Shiva of Kerala is known for its beautiful murals on the walls. The Thrissur-Pooram festival, with its impressive elephant parade, powerful drum and cymbal play and magnificent fireworks make it an unforgettable experience.

4. Vazhachal forest gardens and waterfalls:

Vazhachal Forest Gardens and waterfalls are a delight for nature lovers. These wooded gardens and bubbling waterfall are breathtakingly beautiful – a great place for a picnic surrounded by nature at its best.
