Light House Kanyakumari



Next time you visit Kanyakumari, try to find time to visit this 100 year old lighthouse. It towers 105 feet above sea level. The view from the old of the light house at Kanyakumari gives you the panoramic view of the Souther most tip of India Peninsula. At night the beacon of light from this towering lighthouse sans across the Indian ocean.

As a repeated visitor in Kanyakumari, I normally skip hot spots in Cape. I like exploring to other historical monuments like the granite Vattakota or Circular fort lying four miles north-east of Kanyakumari. If you're interested in uncoveing old ruins, you can visit the century old lighthouse at Leepuram coast.

This bay area around Kanyakumari cost line is riddled with ship wreaks and many people visit to uncover artifacts from sunken ships.
