Pathiramanal, a picturesque island in Lake Vembanadu, is positioned to become a bio-park. The project, which is supposed to protect the natural beauty and environmental specialties of the place, was inaugurated by the chief minister of kerala. This project was undertaken by the Kerala tourism initiatives as an eco tourism project. The project will be implemented by agencies operating in the field of land resource management and fisheries management in the state of kerala. For visiting this destination and other destinations in kerala visit kerala tours offered by indian tour planners.
