From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Vallicode (Malayalam:വള്ളികൊഡ്) (pronounced valli-codu) is a village in Pathanamthitta district in Kerala, India.
It is a beautiful village situated at about 7 km from the district head quarters of Pathanamthitta at south - east direction.
The northern and southern sides of the village are protected by tall hills and a beautiful green valley emerges in between the hills. The valley, decorated by tall trees and lush green vegetation descends to the paddy fields at the centre, which is watered by the stream originating from the hills, flowing through the heart of the village, like a life-line and reaches the Acchenkovil river.
One can reach Vallicode from Pathanamthitta via Kodumthara, Vazhamuttom, Thazhoorkkadavu Bridge.
