Some of these are ponds that belonged to a family or Mansion, that was later opened for public.

Waterways!

Kerala has used waterways well historically for transportation purposes and still they are one of the most aesthetically pleasing, as well as healthy ways to travel.

Most Canals will be narrow enough to have thick tree cover over it. Hence, even during summers, the travel will be very cool and healthy experience.

Rafts are also used in some cases where canals are too narrow.

Of course, the most appealing factors of this modus transportation is the simplicity of it and the natural beauty that comes with it.
