The Kerala Tourism department has sanctioned ₹2.2 crore for the Noottavan Para tourism project in Puliyoor grama panchayat in Alappuzha.
Fisheries and Culture Minister Saji Cherian said the project had received administrative sanction as part of the ongoing efforts to implement a heritage tourism circuit by integrating areas that reflected the cultural and traditional legacy of the wider Chengannur region.
Facilities
The project envisions the development of facilities such as a rest centre, rain shelters, safety handrails, cantilever viewpoint, CCTV surveillance, toilets, and a ropeway, among other facilities.
Mr. Cherian said that once the project became a reality, it would be possible to integrate it with other tourism initiatives such as Pandavanpara, Ala Poomalachal, and Kuthiravattam Chira aqua tourism.
He said that the project would be implemented after taking into account the technical advice of the Kerala Adventure Tourism Promotion Society.
