Queen's Way is a 1.8 km long walkway in the city of Kochi, Kerala, India. It is a fully automated musical walkway that stretches from the start of GIDA road to Chathyath Church.[1] The walkway is situated at around 1.5 km from the High Court Junction and 2 km from Marine Drive. It was setup at an initial cost of 5 crore (US$580,000) allowed by the Tourism Department.[1]

Facilities

The walkway is fully automated with smart phone-controlled lights. Around 120 benches are erected along the entire stretch of the road for the visitors to relax. An amphitheatre with a seating capacity for 50, lights to beautify trees and LED strips are some of the highlights of the walkway.[1][2] The walkway is under the surveillance of 21 bullet CCTV cameras and three advanced 360-degree cameras.[3] There are frequent cleaning campaigns undertaken along the protected mangrove forests that line the walkway and adjoining areas in Pachalam and Vaduthala.
