Yes… and I am told that this is the only “other” place in India apart from the Sunderbans to have backwater Mangroves…
Whats fascinating is to see the vegetation just jutting out of water…& the close mesh these stems (or whatever it is thats above the water surface) make.
This place is Pechavarram… which is beyond the temple town of ‘Chidambaram’.
U can enjoy a leisurely boat ride amongst the mangroves… & the numerous channels (some of which are natural…but mostly man-made)
