Thiruvananthapuram - truly the capital of God's own country!

Thiruvananthapuram is well connected by road, rail as well as air to all parts of the country. As to accommodation, there are plenty of options all over the city, to fit all budgets. If you plan to visit temples in Thiruvananthapuram, or anywhere in Kerala, carry suitable clothes. Men are not allowed to wear pants, and have to only wear Dhotis. Shorts are not allowed even under the dhotis, so beware of the guards at the entrance trained to see what you are wearing!!!! Women can wear sarees or long skirts, but salwar kameez are not allowed. Only small-sized purses are allowed inside the temple, so it is better to leave your mobile and cameras at home. However, the good news is that, if you are caught unprepared, there are cloak rooms to keep your valuables, and even dhotis on hire are available. So, go ahead, and enjoy a vacation in the capital of God's own country!!!

East Fort & Chalai - the commercial essence of this town

Get into an Auto from anywhere in Trivandrum and say 'Gandhi Park, East Fort'. Sit for a while in the Park and absorb the atmosphere. Wander about. Head for food. Wander a bit more. Head home.
