Kowdiar Road, also known as the Royal Road or Raja Veedhi, is a significant location in Trivandrum. It leads to the Kowdiar Palace, the residence of the royal family of Travancore. This area is home to several notable landmarks, including the Raj Bhavan, Christ Nagar School, Trivandrum Tennis Club, Trivandrum Golf Club, Nirmala Bhavan Higher Secondary School, and the Salvation Army Complex. Additionally, within a 3-kilometer radius, one can find the Trivandrum Zoo, Niyamasabha, and the Muscat Hotel. Approximately 5 kilometers away is the Lulu Mall, one of the largest shopping destinations in the region.

I was born in Trivandrum, the capital of Kerala. Trivandrum was ruled by a king. The royal family left for Kowdiar. The Kowdiar nightlife is amazing. The night view of the Kavadiya road is beautiful. The Kavadiya roads are filled with green plants. A lot of parks are situated in Kowdiar. On the junction side, police surveillance is always working.

This is a great place for living happily with a family and also it is one of the important area of our State. There are lots of positive things about this place. As close to the Royal Palace we can see the works of our ancient monarchy and also would know about our history. Also there are parks for children to play and also where people could interact with each other. As an important place our area doesn't face any power cut problems and also there is no fear of water shortage. Also there are lots of trees which makes the sight of our place much beautiful. Also there are lots of shops so we get everything we need from our surroundings. Also it is safe at night as there are lots of police patrolling at night as well as day time. The area is free of garbages and other wastes. And finally the roads in our area connects with many other main roads and there is less traffic block in our area. And lots of clubs like golf club and tennis club are here. It's a peaceful atmosphere in our area. Our area is clean and it is ensured by the Municipal corporation of our area.
Negatives
Our area has lots of positives but negatives are also there. Some of them are, there are lots of accident occurs in our area. As the roads are well built and due to less traffic block youngsters find it fascinating to drive in dangerous speeds. And also the environment is clean and all but there are problems of air pollution in our area. Also in here we don't have large playgrounds for playing sports like football, cricket, etc for free. We only have some small parks and football turfs. But turfs cost money and we can't always rely on it. These are only the problems in my area.
