Alleppey Kerala

A city of canals, backwaters, beaches and lagoons, Alleppey was described as the 'Venice of the East' by Indian Governor George Curzon in the early 20th century. That is why it is known as the 'Venetian capital' of Kerala. Alleppey is notorious for the large crowds of tourists that flock to its beaches. Unlike most beaches in India, the main reason to visit Alleppey and its beaches in particular is its pristine condition.
