The most fascinating magnetic element of Muvattupuzha is the river there cutting the city into three segments resembling the most lovely Thames River in London. This river is a union of three streams, Thodupuzha River, Kaliyar River and Kothamangalam River. These three small rivers conglomerate at Muvattupuzha to transform to the big Muvattupuzha River and there from flows smoothly to rest at the Vaikom backwaters embracing the various interior areas of Ernakulam and Kottayam districts. Since the merger of three rivers realizes at this place, this area was named Muvattupuzha, meaning the place where three rivers Unite. |
