Rated 4.1/5 (based on 7250 reviews)
Krishnapuram Palace In Alleppey
A rare specimen of the Kerala style of architecture, Krishnapuram Palace in Alleppey is a palace-cum-museum located in Kayamkulam Alappuzha district. The structure is complete with gabled roofs, narrow corridors, and dormer windows. Built in the 18th century by the erstwhile Travancore king Marthanda Varma Maharaja, the palace is today a protected monument under the Archaeology Department.
The traditional architecture of this palace attracts thousands of tourists every year. In addition to its architecture, Krishnapuram Palace has a mural depicting the story of Gajendra Moksham (salvation of elephant). Dating back to the 18th century, this exquisite piece of art is one of the largest murals in India and is a fantastic blend of colours and expressions. This 16-block palace is also famous for its museum that houses antiques, sculptures, paintings, weapons, megalithic remains, stone inscriptions, coins and artifacts in bronze.
Situated on a small hilltop, Krishnapuram Palace is surrounded by a terraced garden with fountains, ponds and lawns. The garden was recently renovated in accordance with the scientific techniques prescribed for the protection of heritage monuments.
While there are several statues inside the museum, the one that attracts the most attention is the statue of Buddha kept in a chamber in the garden. This single piece statue is more than a thousand years old. The museum also has a Bible in Sanskrit that dates back to 1886.<READMORE>
The palace and the museum are open between 9:00 am to 5:00 pm on all days except Mondays.Â

I had a nice experience in Kerala.. Thanks to Guruji Travels. The services provided were very good. Munnar was Heaven. The Club Munnar Hotel in Munnar was the best, all the services provided were very good. But the hotel "Michael's Inn" in Thekkady was not good.. the worst part was the food, it was not good. The private houseboat (Butterfly Cruise) was good but it could have been better.. candle-light dinner was not given.. but other than that it was nice. The service provided at the houseboat was good. & Now the best part of the Trip was our Cab dri...

Pagoda indeed served well . Breakfast was served well in both the restaurants . Cab service was excellent. Would not recommend stay in Green View Inn for longer duration (not more than a day) as they clean the room only after your departure even if you stay there for more than three days. Munnar is a great
