Vaikom Siva Temple, one of South India's most revered Shiva shrines, sits in the oldest township in Kottayam district, Kerala. The town holds a notable place in Indian history as the site of the Vaikom Satyagraha, a movement against untouchability in which Mahatma Gandhi and Periyar Ramaswamy took part. At the heart of the serene Vaikom backwaters stands White Gate Residency, a hospitality venture of the Udayapadmam Group of Companies.
Kumarakom, Vaikom and Kuttanad together form an emerald backwater system that stretches over an extensive 75 km, a landscape of mangrove forests, green paddy fields and coconut groves woven together by waterways and canals lined with white lilies. It's a naturally rich setting with plenty to offer even the most discerning traveller.
Known as the rice bowl of Kerala, Kuttanad spreads over 75 km of vast green paddy fields set against a backdrop of scenic backwaters. The region is also home to a long-standing coir industry, with many local households tied to it directly or indirectly.
