An amazing view point near the city the view from here is awesome. Paved pathway is given towards the viewpoint. A bamboo bridge or path is there which takes us to the top of the hill from where you can sit and enjoy a 360 view. A children's park and a toilet has been provided no other refreshments other than a local shop near by the entry. Calm place to visit with family. a very good place to spend evening time for kids and family. It is one of the rush free space inside the city having plenty of green and also a clean place. consists of children's park and restaurant with snacks and juices . Children's park is really good especially for small kids, compared to other parks in trivandrum. An excellent picnic spot, children will surely enjoy as there is play and children park.
