However, one of its most underrated natural treasures is the mangroves around Vembanad Lake, the largest wetland ecosystem in India and a UNESCO-recognized Ramsar site.

These mangroves, thriving along the lake’s banks, play a vital role in supporting biodiversity, protecting against natural disasters, and ensuring ecological balance.
