Flora and fauna that never cease to surprise. That is Thekkady for you. And introducing you to the mystery and adventure of the jungle is Lake Palace.

Majestically poised on a peninsula in the Periyar Lake, in the midst of the Periyar forest, the Lake Palace, which sports the regal ambience of an erstwhile summer palace, is the perfect hideaway.
