Location

The Punalur Suspension Bridge, located in Punalur, India is a 400-foot (120 m)-long 19th-century motorable bridge in Kerala, which was built by Travancore Government and is now a historical attraction. It was designed to shake when walked on, with the intention of deterring animals from crossing from the forest into the town.
