Geography

Thevara is part of the mainland Kochi and marks its south-west boundary. It is connected to the water-bound West Kochi via bridges.

Thevara is a link to Thevara Ferry and Konthuruthy which links the place like Kumbalam, Nettoor, Kadavanthra to other areas of Kochi city via waterway. The major artery of Kochi city starts from Kacheripady and ends at Thevara Junction.

Thevara is the first residential area one would come across after crossing over the Venduruthy Bridge to enter Ernakulam city. It is a quiet waterfront locale, about 2.5 km from the commercial center of M. G. Road and South Railway Station. Cochin International Airport is 33 km to the north-east. Ernakulam Central Bus Station is about 3 km from Thevara. The road via Kundannoor is an easy access to Cochin bypass.
