Gateway city with Fort Kochi, Chinese fishing nets, and the airport.
The destination
Cochin (Kochi) is where most Kerala tour packages begin and end. Its international airport and Ernakulam railway stations make it the natural gateway to Munnar, Thekkady and the Alleppey houseboats. Fort Kochi and Mattancherry are worth a half day: the Chinese fishing nets at sunset, St. Francis Church, Santa Cruz Basilica, the Paradesi Synagogue, Mattancherry Palace and the spice warehouses of Jew Town, with Marine Drive for an evening walk.
