Q S T & R Block Kayal
  Description:

Location: In Kuttanad

A striking example of the indigenous agricultural engineering know-how 

Here, cultivation and habitation are made possible at four to 10 feet below sea level by reclaiming land from the backwaters and building dikes around it.
A leisurely cruise along the canals here is a memorable experience.

The kayals (backwaters) are accessible by boat from Alappuzha (about 2 hrs by motor boat and 30 min by speedboat). 
Nearest railway station: Alappuzha
Nearest airport: Kochi International Airport, about 85 km from Alappuzha
