Male Kochi - Cheap flights

Kochi is a place that has been attracting merchants and travellers for centuries. It is always associated with the best quality of spices and the sandalwood, that grows there. It is also a real mix of influences – you will see there, occupying huge spaces, networks of Chinese fishermen from ancient times, that are more of an icon now, a four-hundred-year-old synagogue, ancient mosques, as well as colonial houses from Portuguese and British times.

Another element that affects the unique atmosphere of Kochi, is the smell of incense sticks, which the inhabitants set alight all the time and almost in every corner, lingering everywhere. The smell is a bit irritating, but certainly also very pleasant.

Being in this unique place, be sure to try the typical mean of transport – tuk-tuk, the famous Indian train and local bus. Each trip provides impressions of a different kind, but one thing is certain - it will be loud, because the horns are in use all the time. Residents drive quickly and carelessly, which probably caused a faster heartbeat for unaccustomed to this tourists, but undoubtedly also provide them with memories for a very long time.

When choosing to go to India, one of the most important points of your trip should be to try the local cuisine. In Kochi and its surroundings there will be plenty of places where you can do it. For instance, Farmers Cafe restaurant on Ridsdale Street and, located in the city of Maradu (only six kilometres away), Mosaic in the Crowne Plaza Kochi hotel, or the Sky Grill on the roof of the hotel, are very popular.
