Formerly known as Trivandrum, Thiruvananthapuram is gateway to one of the most beautiful states in India- Kerala. Trivandrum opens the gates to a world of beaches, mountains, backwaters, wildlife sanctuaries and islands. Trivandrum is mostly serving as a gateway to Kovalam -- Kovalam is just 16 kms away from Trivandrum. The Kovalam beach has for long been known as the "Paradise of the South". "Kovalam" means a grove of coconut trees and true to its name the village offers an endless sight of coconut trees. The crescent-shaped beach has three parts. The southern most beach, and the most popular, is light house beach. It offers an amazing sight of Vizhinjam mosque. The northern, Samudra, is a laidback one and time seems stands still here. The middle, hawah, in the early day, is a beehive of activities with fishermen setting out for sea.
