Know your Trivandrum
March 28, 2010
In this series we will post some pictures taken in Trivandrum or surroundings. Will try to include some informative description. If enough description is not given, viewers can identify the location.
Shall we start with this image?
Your guesses may be included in the comments below. (The water body is a definite give away!)
If no correct guesses are received, answer will be posted next weekend.
Maruthumkuzhi…?
on March 28th, 2010maruthankuzhi….
on March 28th, 2010dont have any idea of this place
on March 28th, 2010Is this place of any historical significance ?
on March 29th, 2010sorry for this wild guess, is this place somewhere near plamood?
on March 29th, 2010From maruthankuzhi dam the water can be diverted through kochar up to “Padmatheerdham” lake in front of Padmanabha Swami Temple. Now Kochar became road and canal became narrow. It is a way to recharge pamatheerdham lake on deficiency of water. It is an urgent need of change of water from the lake periodically to purify it.
on March 29th, 2010Thanks all.
This is the footbridge across Killi river at Maruthamkuzhi (near Sasthamangalam).
Thanks keralafarmer for the additional information.
How nice it would be if the river is cleaned and a walkway built from Maruthannkuzhi upto Killippalam !!
on March 29th, 2010What I meant was a walkway on the banks of the river on either side with small garden or hedges. Maintenance of different segments can be give to the community around the respective segment or the nearby residents’ association.
on March 29th, 2010I agree with Prof.VHS. The community and the nearby resident’s association should jump into action. It’s such a pretty picture and neglect will spoil it’s face.
