As Kerala's capital city, Trivandrum (officially Thiruvananthapuram) elegantly balances its role as a modern administrative hub with deep spiritual and cultural roots. Named after Anantha, the sacred serpent in Hindu mythology, the city is built on seven hills and offers a unique mix of magnificent temples, colonial architecture, pristine beaches, and vibrant museums. Less touristy than other Kerala destinations, Trivandrum provides an authentic glimpse into urban South Indian life while serving as a gateway to nearby beach resorts and the Western Ghats. The city's laid-back atmosphere and cultural richness make it an intriguing addition to any Kerala journey.

"tell us what inspires you - and we will handcraft and experience that mirrors your elegance , pace and personality".
START PLANNINGThe ultimate Trivandrum experience combines staying at exclusive beach resorts in Kovalam or nearby secluded coves, enjoying authentic Ayurvedic treatments at wellness centers, exploring the city's cultural landmarks with expert guides, dining at sophisticated restaurants serving Kerala fusion cuisine, and taking day trips to nearby beaches and hill stations.
The ideal time is from November to February when the weather is pleasant and perfect for beach activities and sightseeing. December and January offer the most comfortable temperatures. The monsoon season (June-September) brings heavy rains but also lush greenery and is popular for Ayurvedic treatments.
Two days is sufficient to explore the city's main attractions including Padmanabhaswamy Temple, museums, and Kovalam Beach. However, if you want to experience Ayurvedic wellness programs at beach resorts or explore nearby destinations like Varkala or Ponmudi hills, consider extending your stay to three or four days.
