Kumarakom is a centre for houseboat cruises. Traditionally, the houseboats was called Kettuvallam, which means a boat made by trying together pieces of wood. Unbelievable as it may sound, not a single nail is used in the making of a Kettuvallam. Jack wood planks are joined together with coir rope and then coated with black resin made from boiled cashew nuts shells. Travel Guide India
