Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala

I lived in Thiruvananthapuram from June 2007 to June 2010 almost 3 years. Unlike other capital cities of South India this is a very quiet & slow moving city.
T'Puram is located on west coast of India at southern most point just above Kanniyakumari. It has got many beautiful beaches & hillocks.
T'puram got its name from the famous Sri Padmanabhaswamy Temple. The temple was built by King Marthanda Varma  of the Travancore Royal family. This temple is one of the famous Tourist places of Kerala. Apart from temple Kovalam beach is thronged by both domestic & international tourists.
Other important tourist attractions are Napier Museum, Koyikkal Palace, Numismatic museum, Shankumugam Beach, Valiyathura old jetty, Kuthira Maliga, etc.,...

Some of the photos I would like to show you all.
