Balaramapuram - Where Kerala Sarees Are Made | Kasavu Saree | Handlooms Of Kerala | Trivandrum Vlog

Balaramapuram - A place in Kerala that has put the state on the fashion map of India!
In this episode of my "Solo In South" series, we explore the beautiful town of Balaramapuram. Located in the Thiruvananthapuram district of Kerala, India, it is a charming destination with a rich cultural heritage and breathtaking natural beauty. Balaramapuram is also the handloom hub of Kerala, a place where Kerala's famous saree called KASAVU are made. Kasavu saree, also known as Kerala saree or Settu Mundu, is a traditional attire worn by women in the Indian state of Kerala. It is a symbol of the state's rich cultural heritage and is highly regarded for its elegance, simplicity, and timeless appeal.
The Kasavu saree is predominantly white or off-white in color with a golden border known as the Kasavu. The border can vary in width and design, ranging from simple and minimalistic to intricately woven patterns. The golden Kasavu border adds a touch of opulence and enhances the overall grace of the saree.
The fabric of a Kasavu saree is typically cotton, which makes it comfortable and suitable for the tropical climate of Kerala. The soft and lightweight cotton material allows for easy draping and movement, making it a popular choice for daily wear, as well as special occasions such as weddings, festivals, and cultural events.
Wearing a Kasavu saree not only showcases the beauty of Kerala's traditional attire but also celebrates the rich cultural heritage and craftsmanship of the state. It is a garment that embodies grace, elegance, and the timeless traditions of Kerala.
Balaramapuram is famous for its handloom industry and is renowned for its exquisite traditional hand-woven fabrics, especially the renowned Balaramapuram sarees. We take you on a journey to witness the skilled artisans at work, weaving intricate designs and patterns using traditional techniques passed down through generations.
During your visit to Balaramapuram, you can also explore the vibrant local markets, where you will find a wide range of handloom products such as sarees, dhotis, and towels, all crafted with impeccable precision. These authentic creations are highly sought after for their unique designs and superior quality.

Hello 🙋🏻‍♀️

[@santoshjoshi7201]

So Beautiful ❤

[@DesiGirlTraveller]

Thank you! 😊

[@RajuPalat-qy9gm]

Good presentation. Low key, but effective. Appeals to me as a Malayali from Trivandrum. We are wary of visitors/migrants after the case of a migrant pushing a train TT out of a running train, killing him, just because he asked for the ticket. You say people are very kind here, well we expect at least courtesy in return. Also use less Hindi

[@pialeebanerjee3501]

I am going to Varkala can you please tell me where I will get kasavu sarees in Varkala or Cochin at reasonable rate

[@johnutube5651]

Any Khadi store near-by will carry them.

[@suehalli855]
