Muziris project set for a global push.

Revived water-taxi services by Onam

* To feature in upcoming Travel Mart.

   The plan is to revive and relaunch the Muziris project by featuring it as a major global attraction
   in the upcoming edition of the Kerala Travel Mart (KTM). Around 1,200 tour operators are exp-
   ected to participate in KTM, providing a platform to promote Muziris as a heritage tourism dest-
   ination.

* Earlier, the project had a total of 11 vessels, including five water taxis and six open-top boats.
   Three outdated boats had been scrapped, while the remaining boats have been taken up for
   repair and maintenance.

* Plans on

   * Tourism department expects the repaired vessels to resume services during the Onam holiday
      season.
   * Water tourism circuits connecting various heritage locations are also being planned as part of
      the revival.
