At the northern end of the village is the Sluice cum Bridge which connects Vellangalloor Panchayat with Padiyoor Panchayat. Kettuchira is often selected as a shooting location for movies, short films, and video albums. Many people come and spend time fishing.

The boat is used as water transport which helps in connecting Vellangalloor panchayat with SN Puram panchayat, attracting the scenic beauty of the Connolly Canal.

A large number of migrating birds are visiting every year "Ammaripadam", a small beautiful place of this village.
