India is a land of extraordinary contrasts, where ancient traditions meet modern innovation, and natural wonders coexist with vibrant cities.
Kottayam has an excellent road network. The NH-183 (Kollam–Theni Highway) and MC Road (Main Central Road – SH 1) pass through the district, connecting it to major Kerala cities and hill stations.
