It’s up to you to decide whether Kerala is the most beautiful state of India. At least it is the greenest and is a melting pot of cultures, activities and other interesting sights. It is situated in the south of India with the Arabian sea along its western coast, that paved the way for international trade, and the mountain range of western Ghats on the east with its marvellous nature. It is the most literate state in India and travellers will soon find out that English is widely understood although the native language is Malayalam.
There are three airports: Calicut in the north, Kochi in the centre and Thiruvananthapuram (Trivandrum) in the south. Trivandrum is the state capital although it might not appear like that at first sight. It still has a rustic ambience. The Napier Museum has a good overview of the state’s history. From here, you can easily explore the marvellous beaches of Varkala and Kovalam.
A trip you can’t refuse when you’re in Kerala is leaving the small town of Kollam by boat and go by means of the backwaters, to the market town Alappuzha. You'll have a spectacular view of what life is like in that area. Kochi, the commercial capital, is a bit more to the north and has, besides its seaside front, a lot to offer for those interested in history. The old European church, Chinese fishing nets and the Jewish synagogue are only a few of the remnant’s of the former days.
God's own country Kerala is an exotic green land with beaches and palmtrees..Backwaters are the best scenic beauties of the world..With the warm people, it is a must see
