Thiruvananthapuram

Thiruvananthapuram, the capital city of Kerala, stands as an ode to the magnificent British Colonial architecture with its churches, university campuses, libraries and art galleries being prime examples. Thiruvananthapuram, often referred to as ‘Trivandrum’, is one of the major I.T hubs in the state while also being one of its greenest cities. With beautiful beaches at Kovalam and Varkala, splendid backwaters at Poovar and Anchuthengu, and hilltop destinations such as Agasthyamala and Ponmudi, Thiruvananthapuram is, by all means, a must-visit destination. Also known as the ‘Evergreen City of India’, Thiruvananthapuram is home to the famous Padmanabhaswamy Temple which is apparently the wealthiest temple in the world!
