The
God’s Own Country:
With the Arabian Sea on the west, the Western Ghats towering
500 - 2700 m on the east and networked by forty four rivers, Kerala
enjoys unique geographic features that have made it one of the most
sought after tourism destinations in Asia. An equable climate. A
long shoreline with serene beaches. Tranquil stretches of emerald
backwaters. Lush hill stations and exotic wildlife. Waterfalls.
Sprawling plantations and paddy fields. Ayurvedic health holidays.
Enchanting art forms. Magical festivals. Historic and cultural monuments.
An exotic cuisine... All of which offer you a unique experience.
And what’s more, every one of these charming destinations is only
a two hours drive from the other. A singular advantage no other
destination offers.
