Azhimala, a beach, 21 km
away from the Thiruvananthapuramcity. The steep road gives no clue as to
what lies
ahead. As you take the last turn, you note that the road ends in
front of a temple. A beautiful temple, the Azhimala Siva temple has
the blue waters as its backdrop.At the temple, one can
feel the direct communion between nature and spirituality. The temple
is atop a rocky mount. To watch the waves crash, you can head to the
temple's balcony. Behind the temple a beatiful rocky shore on the right
side extending to the forthcoming Vizhinjam port and a beautiful sandy shore on the left side.
The sight of the stretch of golden
sands rejuvenates you and pushes you to reach the destination.
Azhimala is 21 kms away from the city. You have to take the Chakkai
by-pass along Vizhinjam towards Chowara. Also KSRTC bus is available from East fort,Trivandrum to Azhimala Temple. As you reach Pulinkudy you
can see a big board announcing `Azhimala Siva temple'. Turn right and
proceed nearly a kilometre to reach the destination.
Another kilometre from Azhimala, you
will reach Chowara, another beautiful beach. Evenings are the best
time as you can watch the beautiful sunset.
