Kerala
Kerala ancient culture and traditions, coupled with its varied demographics and landscapes, have made it one of the most popular tourist destinations in India. National Geographic’s Traveller magazine names Kerala as one of the “ten paradises of the world” and “50 must see destinations of a lifetime”. It has been named also as “One of the 100 great trips for the 21st century”. Its most popular tourist attractions are beaches, backwaters and hill stations. Ayurvedic tourism, wildlife sanctuaries and bird-watching are very popular activities.
The “backwaters” are an extensive network of interlocking rivers (41 west-flowing rivers), lakes, and canals that center around Alleppey and Kumarakom, Lake Vembanad and Ashtamudi Lake

This is the best time of the year to travel to Kerala, when the tropical weather is around 32C. Beautiful unspoiled beaches lead to a warm clear sea; the gentle rolling of the houseboats along the backwaters is truly relaxing; the authentic ayurveda treatments help in soothing the spirit; the culture and spirituality of this ancient locality will absorb every single inch of our being.
