Thrissur, earlier known as Trichur, is a vibrant city located in the central belt of the southern state of Kerala. Its home to sacred religious sites, colorful festivals, abundant natural beauty and rapidly growing infrastructure. Thrissur is emerging as a popular destination for homebuyers seeking spaces that are a perfect mix of urban conveniences, cultural heritage and serene locations.

This is also why the district’s real estate market is thriving, offering a variety of options to cater to the differing needs of people. Owning an apartment in Thrissur, a city that presents the perfect balance between modernity and traditional, is a matter of pride to homebuyers. Luxury apartments offering 2BHK and 3BHK options are easily available here, whether they are for investment purposes or personal use. And with the demand for real estate only touted to grow here, excellent returns on investment are a given.

Cultural and Business Hub

With over Rs. 700 crores in business done in gold every year, Thrissur is also a major jewelry manufacturing hub in southern India, and is often referred to as the Gold Capital of Kerala. It is also known as the Cultural Capital of Kerala and the Land of Poorams, with a rich history going back to two millennia. Famous for its Thrissur Pooram and the Guruvayur Sri Krishna temple, Thrissur also draws millions of devotees each year. Being recognized as the Niagara of the South, the famous Athirappilly Waterfalls are an outstanding tourism attraction here, along with other hidden gems such as the serene Chettuva Backwaters.

Backwaters Attractions

Chettuva, famous for its scenic backwaters, is a mere 10km south of the temple town of Guruvayoor. It offers the perfect escape into the placid and peaceful world of the calm backwaters as it winds through the dense greenery, creating a magical vibe. This hidden gem is also home to Kerala’s largest mangrove forest, adding to the natural beauty of this location. Spend the evening watching the dappling dance of light on water and feel the cool breeze brush against your skin. Othe attractions include the ghostly Chinese fishing nets, the estuary, and a host of migratory birds nestling among the myriads of mystical green islets.

The Chettavu and Enamakkal Lake form part of the scenic backwaters that meanders its way into the estuary from where it drains into the Arabian Ocean. Residents of the surrounding Manalur, Chettuva, Thriprayar and Kandassankadavu areas can relax and rejuvenate with a leisurely boat ride across the lake and enjoy the natural beauty of tall coconut grooves, mangrove forests and activities such as mussel harvesting and toddy tapping as the gentle breeze cools you. This is what home feels like – a place where you are embraced by peaceful whispers of nature and tranquility.

Gateway

Chettuva is the gateway to a life lived in peace with natural beauty, and many a regional film has been shot here to showcase its attraction. With many homebuyers aspiring to own a home that’s also a gateway to a life lived in peace and tranquility, Artech Realtors, leaders in building innovative apartments in Kerala, have come up with a premium luxury project that exemplifies just this! Aptly known as Artech Gateway, these 2 and 3 BHK flats offer never-seen-before facilities and customizations and are located on TB Road, just 300m from Sakthan bus stand and within easy connectivity to all important areas within Thrissur.

So, what are you waiting for – time to go and have a look!
