Thousands of people gather on the banks of the river Pampa to watch the snake boat races. The oarsmen sing traditional boat songs and wear white mundu and turbans. The golden lace at the head of the boat, the flag and the ornamental umbrella at the center make it a show of pageantry too.
Parumala is a sacred land that attracts pligrims of every religion from every courner of India because of the presence of the very famous Parumala church.
