Kochi is among top 10 trending travel destinations: Here's why

India Nov 12, 2025

Kochi just scored a spot on Booking.com's list of the world's top 10 trending travel destinations!
The city's mix of colonial-era buildings, colorful art cafes, and those famous Chinese fishing nets by the sea really caught the platform's eye.

Cultural hotspots, delicious food, and easy access

Beyond its good looks, Kochi is a cultural hotspot—think the Kochi-Muziris Biennale, where old warehouses turn into art spaces every two years.
Plus, foodies can dig into spicy seafood and local favorites like fish molee.
With easy airport access and quick trips to Kerala's backwaters or hill stations, it's no wonder Kerala's tourism minister says this shoutout puts the state firmly on the global map.
