The most renowed destination is the periyar Wild life sancutary at Thekkady. The drive to Thekkady itself is enchanting as the road winds through tranquil countryside, rich plantations and thick jungles.
The
Sanctuary offers a lovely and comfortable way to see the animals via boat
rides on the man made lake,which the wildlife areas encircle. In addition
to the wild life areas encircle. In addition to the wild life there are
water and land birds galore here, and one can sometimes find dedicated
bird watchers setting in for one of two weeks of serious observation.
There are two KTDC run lodges with in the Sanctuary, the main Aranya Nivas
stone lodge at the head of the lake, and the Romantic Lake Palace on a
small island/promontory up the lake, reachable only by boat. The lake
palace was former maharaja's summer Palace and will satisfy the most dedicated
romantics.
