Stream flowing between rocks, Paniyeli Poru, Kerala.
Tranquil Paniyeli Poru is a perfect one day getaway near Perumbavoor town in Ernakulam district and is 55 kilometers from Kochi. Paniyeli Poru can be assessed from Kochi - Munnar highway after Perumbavoor town by taking a right deviation from MGM school junction, Kuruppampady. Here the Periyar river flows through strata of rocks and forests which is a stupendous sight. This land is copious with large diversity of mangroves, trees, birds and butterflies. The water is clear and chilling even in this hot summer time. Tourists must be extra careful while stepping into this river having clusters of slippery rocks and undercurrents even though the water is only few feet deep.

The Kerala State Electricity Board has constructed a two stored building having balconies on the edge of the mountain top under their new tourism venture called Hydel Tourism Project. From here tourists can watch safely the beauty of the nature, the Moolamattom Power station, Moolamattam town below and even the far away Thodupuzha town when the sky is clear. When I took these shots, it was totally misty. It is said, the water from the Idukki reservoir is brought through under ground tunnels to the turbines in this power station for generating electricity.
