Famous seaside Varkala Cliff is a vast collection of ancient rock formations. In the past few years, Varkala has prospered and is climbing the popularity ladder with incredible speed. The relaxed town is located about 40 kilometres from Thiruvananthapuram, the state of Kerala's capital. With its growing appeal, Varkala Cliff is now posing a threat to the jovial hippy hotspots of India like Goa and Gokarna.
It has some enormous rock formations, hillsides, warm beaches, undiscovered ruins, forts, sequestered lighthouses, and serene lakes. Varkala Cliff's distinctive quality is that it resembles a dramatic horizon that is fusing with the Arabian Sea. The Varkala Formation is another name given to the cliffs by the Indian Geological Survey. The coastal stretch saw a massive expansion and was previously known as Udayamarthandapuram, named after the monarch of Travancore.
Moreover, it is frequently referred to as Southern Varanasi because to the 2000-year-old Janardhan Swami Temple that is located next to the Varkala cliff. The beaches that sunbathers adore the most are those like Papanasam, Varkala, and Odayam. You can also take a tour of some magnificent buildings, such the adjacent Janardhan Swami Temple and Anjengo fort.
