Cultural Scene in Thiruvananthapuram, Capital of God's Own Country

Trivandrum has a vibrant and eclectic cultural scene. This is an attempt to showcase through photographs some of the events to give a flavour to the common man - not the cognoscenti. I will also post some curious views of Trivandrum which may even be a 'culture shock'! You will find that recently, I have been adding some snippets from the city not necessarily related to culture but give a holistic view of the life in this city.

Football fever. FIFA

As the football fever is rising as we move towards the FIFA finals, I thought of sharing some photoes from my archives showing football on the street and on the beaches.

Pacman sunset

Anyone remember Pac-man, one of the early computer and video games? The circular PacMan with a wide mouth chomps pellets through a maze, while avoiding enemies who pop up at random.
This setting sun captured from a hillock on Kunnumpuram near Kovalam resembles the Pac-Man.
