The Tourism department will take measures to develop Kochi as a major tourism hub of the State, given its potential for expanding water tourism and food / heritage / spice tourism.
The department is in talks with the Kochi Corporation as well as people’s representatives on how micro plans can be developed, so that all attractions of the city can be showcased better to draw more tourists, Minister for Tourism P.A. Mohamed Riyas said in the Assembly on Thursday.
The Minister was replying to a calling attention motion by T.J. Vinod, MLA, on the need to formulate a tourism action plan by linking destinations in Kochi.
