  • Pallipad is located in Alappuzha District of Kerala. It is around 7 km from Harippad and 35 km from Alappuzha. A serene and calm village with vast stretches of paddy fields crisscrossed by waterways, Pallipad still preserves the traditional methods of cultivation. Mannarasala Shri Nagaraja Temple is a major attraction nearby. Harippad Railway Station is the nearest railway station. Trivandrum International Airport (115 km) and Cochin International Airport (110 km) are the nearest airports.
