India is a land of great diversities. But the smallest state in the southern part of India is home to even greater contrasts. Consider the Western Ghats, the world-renowned biodiversity spot that is home to numerous flora and fauna. It has been declared a reserve forest area because it still has unexplored vistas in natural resources.
The Kerala Tourism initiative has taken the lead in promoting the establishment of the numerous hill stations to help the visitors to this ‘God’s Own Country’ to experience and see nature at its natural best. A trek into the unique biodiversity of the Western Ghats will be an unforgettable experience for you.
The Kerala brand is not just limited to the plant and animal biodiversity. It is also home to a rich marine wealth as well. Kerala is a leading exporter of freshwater fishes, prawns and crabs that are very costly in the international market. However, a visitor has the opportunity to see the marine wealth being harvested, processed and cooked from the confines of some of the resorts and hotels.
The cultural diversity is literally mind-boggling. Home to famous poets and artists, the Kerala music festivals and other cultural events has a unique charm of its own. Numerous cultural festivals are now held periodically during various parts of the year. Some of the festivals have become such a hit with people from various parts of the world. People participate in these events forgetting their linguistic and caste differences and enjoy to the maximum |
