Spice Village Periyar - Kerala |

Information about Spice Village
|
Set amidst spice plantations,
Thekkady – Periyar is more known for its Periyar Wildlife
Reserve. Spice Village,Thekkady – Periyar, Kerala is just a
stone's throw away from the game reserve and comprises of
individual cottages set amidst a landscaped spice garden. Spice
Village. Just a mirror, held up to an age old culture and a
living harmony. This is the tribal village, reborn for the
modern traveller. Curling around a misty ridge 2,000 ft high in
the Periyar fastness, there is an arborarium, one man's personal
forest, with fruit trees, rare herbs and a profusion of
flowering plants.
And here is the SPICE VILLAGE RESORT. A timeless experience in
ecological living, recreated for the modern traveler. A village,
produced whole, using mountain spirit and tribal wisdom as
building material. Your cottage is brick and log, the roof
thatched with the same elephant grass used in tribal huts, woven
in the same traditional techniques. Of course, the comforts of a
modern hotel exist, but they never intrude. Modern plumbing,
comfortable beds and hot showers find their place, but in a
setting stripped down to its natural essence. Hewn stone
replaces shag carpets. Birdsong takes the place of television.
Air-conditioning? Unnecessary anyway in the fine mountain
climate, and what would it do but mask the heady scents of spice
forests? At Spice Village,Thekkady – Periyar, Kerala its easy to
think that you're in the middle of wild nature |

Restaurant at
Spice Village |
The Raj too, left
its mark on the Cardamom Hills. Early efforts at
conservation came from its dedicated forest
rangers, who loved the land and its people as
their own.
Today, it's the rainforests, the animals and the
vast silences that attract the modern visitor.
On the road to Spice Village, it's easy to feel
this centuries-old allure yourself. The earth
boils in a fertile outpouring, every conceivable
shade of green, flecked with the crimson and
gold of mountain flowers. This is a world of
forests patterned in dappled sunlight.
Plantations of rubber, coffee and spice. Rolling
highlands and crisp, cool air. |

Facilities at Spice
Village
|
The Village offers many other
facilities, including a conference hall and games room, complete
with table tennis, caroms and chess boards, and a floodlit
outdoor badminton court. The highlight, though, is the garden
itself, bursting with a rich array of spice trees. Each plant is
carefully marked and there is a botanist at hand to answer any
question. The design of each cottage was inspired by the native
tribesmen of periyar, the Oorali and Mannan, who lived in
similar dwellings. Infact, one of the cottages currently being
used as an office, is an orginal tribal hut wihch has been
modified.
