Alappuzha Lighthouse
The Alappuzha Lighthouse is a historic maritime landmark situated in the coastal town of Alappuzha, Kerala. Constructed in 1862 during the reign of the Travancore rulers, it was the first lighthouse built along the Arabian Sea coast of Kerala. The 28-meter tall cylindrical masonry tower features distinctive red and white horizontal bands and offers panoramic views of the Arabian Sea and surrounding backwaters. It remains an active aid to navigation and serves as a major tourist attraction with an on-site museum.
