Distances:

Kumarakom is not a very sightseeing intensive place but is where guests prefer to stay for the sheer kerala experience however there are a lot of attractions besides the magic of Lake Vembanad and Backwaters around it, prime attraction being the Kumarakom Bird Sanctuary which is about 5 km north from here.

Kumarakom is visited as a short-break or as a part of Kerala Itinerary.
