Kumarakom is a popular tourism destination located near the city of Kottayam in Kerala, India, famous for its backwater tourism. It is set in the backdrop of the Vembanad Lake which is the largest freshwater lake in the state of Kerala and longest in the entire country.
After 3 days in Munnar, we were scheduled to go to Kottayam and then to Kumarakom for stay at Lake resort. My brother-in-law Amrit Pal Singh who travels a lot due to his sales job, helped us to book the tickets and resort. But for his expert advise, we could not undertake this trip to Backwaters. as he suggested this spot because the Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee had recently visited this place for his vacations.
