Veli - A Picture Album (Trivandrum - Kerala)

Veli is a quaint village along the beaches of Kerala at Trivandrum. During my last visit to Trivandrum I visited this village and in simple words I could call it as a mega version of Cholamandal Artists Village!!! Its a tiny island like place which separates the back waters from Arabian Sea! The marsh land here was landscaped by award winning sculptor Kanayi Kunhiraman. He sculpted a few tribal gods & goddesses and a conch etc. Here are those sculptures....
