Periyar Tiger Reserve - Thekkady Boating HD - A Perfect Holiday Family destination in Kerala
Periyar National Park and Wildlife Sanctuary (PNP) is a protected area near Thekkady in the district of Idukki, Kottayam and Pathanamthitta in Kerala, India. It is notable as an elephant reserve and a tiger reserve. The protected area covers an area of 925 km2 (357 sq mi). 305 km2 (118 sq mi) of the core zone was declared as the Periyar National Park in 1982. The park is a repository of rare, endemic and endangered flora and fauna and forms the major watershed of two important rivers of Kerala, the Periyar and the Pamba.
The park is often called the Periyar Wildlife Sanctuary or Thekkady. It is located high in the Cardamom Hills and Pandalam Hills of the south Western Ghats along the border with Tamil Nadu. It is 4 km (2.5 mi) from Kumily, approximately 100 km (62 mi) east of Kottayam, 110 km (68 mi) west of Madurai and 120 km (75 mi) southeast of Kochi.
The first official action towards the conservation of wildlife and biodiversity in Kerala was taken in 1934 by the Maharaja of Travancore, Chithira Thirunal Balarama Varma, by declaring the forests around Periyar lake as a private game reserve to stop the encroachment of tea plantations.[2][3] It was founded as Nellikkampatty Game Reserve. It was consolidated as a wildlife sanctuary in 1950 after the political integration of India.
Periyar National Park lies in the middle of a mountainous area of the Cardamom Hills. In the north and the east it is bounded by mountain ridges of over 1,700 m (5,600 ft) altitude and toward the west it expands into a 1,200 m (3,900 ft) high plateau. From this level the altitude drops steeply to the deepest point of the reserve, the 100 metre valley of the Pamba River. The highest peak in the park is the 2,019 m (6,624 ft) high Kottamala, the southernmost peak in India higher than 2,000 metres (6,562 ft). The Periyar and Pamba Rivers originate in the forests of the reserve.[4] The other prominent peaks within the park are Pachayarmala, Vellimala, Sunderamala, Chokkampetti mala and Karimala.[5] The topography consists of steep and rolling hills which are thickly wooded. The sanctuary surrounds Periyar Lake, a reservoir measuring 26 km2 (10 sq mi) which was formed when the Mullaperiyar Dam was erected in 1895. The reservoir and the Periyar River meander around the contours of the wooded hills, providing a permanent source of water for the local wildlife.
The temperature varies depending upon the altitude and it ranges between 15 °Celsius in December and January and 31 °Celsius in April and May. Annual precipitation is between 2000 and 3000 mm, about two-thirds occurring during the southwest monsoon between June to September. Much of the rest occurs during the northeast monsoon between October and December. Summers are warm with some precipitation in April and winters are cold.

South: Pathanamthitta district
East: Theni, Thirunelveli & Ramnad District of Tamil Nadu
West: Kottayam district
The park is made up of tropical evergreen and moist deciduous forests, grasslands, stands of eucalyptus, and lake and river ecosystems.[6] There are many hundreds of flowering plant taxa, including about 171 species of grass and 140 species of orchids.[6] The grasses are found in the open grasslands found on the edges of the water body where fire resistant vegetation grows and dense grasses like elephant grass are found. This is the common dining hall of various herbivores.
There are 35 species of mammals recorded in the park, including many threatened species. It is an important tiger and elephant reserve. A total of 35 Bengal tigers were counted across 925 square kilometers of the park in 2017.[7] It is valuable for Indian elephant and also for a few of white tigers found here. Other mammals include the gaur, sambar, wild pig, Indian giant squirrel, Travancore flying squirrel, jungle cat, sloth bear, Nilgiri tahr, lion-tailed macaque, Nilgiri langur, Salim Ali's fruit bat, stripe-necked mongoose, and Nilgiri marten.

Glimpse of Kerala - Truly the God's own country
A glimpse of Kerala-Gods own country | Kerala Backwaters |
Kerala Beaches | Waterfalls | Misty mountains | Tea gardens | Spice gardens | Culture | Cuisine
#artiphilia #keralatourism #munnar
Kerala, a surreal destination surrounded by the iconic greenery and water bodies, and the tropical paradise of waving palms, where the morning brings mist and magic. The land of coconuts where the palm-fringed backwaters and beaches and the gushing sound of waves around the shores acts a melody to the ears.
The backwaters in Kerala also known as the Venice of South India, where the network of canals unfolds the waterways to travel from one place to another. A ride through the houseboat offers a tranquil ambience to commune with nature.
Also, a walk to the local village, wandering through the plantations and the paddy fields gives a different strolling experience.
The name Kerala relates to the land of coconut. This gift of nature is everywhere to be seen in Kerala, from housing to clothing, art forms, food and more.
The gushing and majestic waterfalls make the green environs of Kerala even more romantic.
The luscious green carpet-like tea estates where the backdrop of greenery from the tea gardens and silvery mist among the mountains form a perfect setting for photography.
The home to one of the major classical Indian dance where the performers decked up in colourful costumes tells you enchanting stories of the land with nothing but their expressions and postures. The state which gave birth to one of the oldest forms of martial arts and surviving fighting system which is still in existence in the modern world.
Kerala often called the “Land of Spices” is a magical place that has been gifting the rest of the world; flavour, fragrance and colour for many centuries.
Home of Ayurveda, and for its herbs and spices, people flock here for rejuvenation and to experience divinity or to find a cure.
The land of elephants where many are domesticated and form a close bond with their keepers and other humans. The elephants are an important part of the culture of Kerala where they play a part in important religious ceremonies.
The wildlife sanctuaries covered with dense evergreen and deciduous forests, grasslands and lakes are the home to many species.
For a beautiful overview of Kerala state, there is nothing better than a train ride. The enchanting route takes you to the backwaters, the beautiful lakes of Kerala, the paddy fields and coconut palms swaying in the distance.
Kerala cuisine is so diverse and distinct that the tantalizing flavours are going to keep you craving. You could say that it was the intoxicating aroma of spices that lured traders long ago to Kerala.
Welcome to Kerala truly the gods own country.
