out from the area. The raft forms after bamboo cut from the ‘Edamalayar’ forest, tied as logs. It was the old
practice of bamboo cutters, to carry logs to destination like ‘Kalady’ & ‘Malayattoor’, through river ‘Periyar’. Only
an experienced raftsman could sail the log through the unruly water here. The area, where the rafts man fights
fiercely against these adversities, was later called by ‘Poru’. Now a days logs of bamboo cut from the forest are
carried away through the road in Vehicles. ‘Poru’ came in to the limelight of tourist map lately. The crowds began
in 2000-01. A bathe in fresh, crystal clear water of ‘periyar’ makes your body and mind warm and fresh. Beware
about the death trap between the strata of rocks connecting mangroves, existing in the the river belt. Do not
immerse in deep and farther water. Don’t step in to water after consuming liquor. The rocks in between the
mangroves is slippery due to the in flow of gushy dam water and rain. Normally, the concerned department
