==How to get to the village of Cherickal==
Cherickal borders two districts - Alappuzha and Pathanamthitta - thus encompassing both districts. If you are coming via Alappuzha, the ideal place to start your trip is Kayamkulam . NH 47 passes through the town of Kayamkulam and connects Thiruvananthapuram and Kochi . From Kayamkulm one should travel to pandalam by bus. From pandalam you will get buses and autorickshaws to cherickal. But if you are traveling by the main central road (MC road), connecting Cochin and Trivandrum , then Pandalam is the ideal place to alight . If you are traveling by train, alight at Chengannur Train Station . From there you will get KSRTC buses to Pandalam.

From pandalam it is very easy to go to cherickal. Go to the autorickshaw stand in front of the pandalam municipality, approach an autorickshaw driver, say the name of the person you want to meet. He will guide you to the right path.
