#TravelTuesday Tucked away in the serene backwaters of Kerala, the *Ambalapuzha Sree Krishna Temple* (13-15th cen. CE) is a jewel of devotion and tradition. Dedicated to Lord Krishna in the form of Unnikannan (child Krishna), this temple is known for its calm spiritual aura, beautiful Kerala-style architecture, and the delicious Palpayasam (sweet rice pudding) that’s offered as prasadam. *Why Visit Now?* Mark your calendar for the *Champakulam Moolam Boat Race* on July 9th, 2025. This thrilling event marks the beginning of Kerala’s snake boat racing season and commemorates the day when the idol of Lord Krishna was brought to the Ambalapuzha temple. Held on the tranquil Pampa River, the race is a spectacle of oars, rhythm, and local pride. *How to Get There?* Ambalapuzha Railway Station (AMPA) is just a few kilometers from the temple and is well-connected by trains from Kochi, Thiruvananthapuram, and other cities. The nearest airport is Cochin International Airport (approximately 100 km away), with regular flights from major Indian cities. *Bonus Tip:* Stay in or around Alappuzha (Alleppey) for a peaceful backwater experience. Opt for a homestay or houseboat to soak in Kerala’s rustic charm.
