The
tidal mouth of Bharathappuzha in Ponnani, where
'Bharathapuza' and 'Tirur-PonnaiPuzha' join together
to traverse into the Arabian Sea, is a seasonal
home to hundreds of migratory birds and attracts
a large number of bird watchers and ornithologists.
If one crosses the ferry of Chamravattom in March-May
period one cannot but miss the lovely flock of
birds. Nearly 25 varieties of birds have been
identified in this area. |
Another tourist attraction is 'Biyyam Kayal'.
This placid, green fringed waterway has water
sports facilities. A boat race is conducted here
annually, during Onam celebrations. A permanent
pavilion is built for the spectators and nearly
two dozen country boats, including some rowed
by women, participate in the race. A big scheme
is underway to develop a tourist complex here,
with hotels, parks, etc. Today, a rest house situated
on the banks of the lake, welcomes the tourists
for a comfortable and cozy stay.
As Chamravattom
project become reality, a landmark growth is expected
in tourism, irrigation and transportation sectors.
The foundation for this ambitious project was
laid down in 1982. |
