Kerala, ‘the God’s Own Country’ can be projected as a land of many contrasts. The
Kerala Tourism initiative has taken special care to promote these unique diversities to the outside world. To witness the entire diversities, one must go in for a long holiday in this picturesque place.
India is a land of unity in diversity. It means that the numerous clans, castes, traditions, customs, mores and the wide linguistic differences live in unity inspite of the numerous diversities. However, Kerala is a small strip of land with a peculiar unique diversity of its own which is quite different from that seen in other parts of India.
The unmatched scenic beauty and the rich cultural heritage of this land has made it one of the most sought after tourist destinations of the world. From the towering mountain ranges of the Western Ghats in the eastern end to the shallow blue waters of the Arabian Sea in the western side, you will be treated with unending diversities in customs, cuisines and culture.
After Goa, the state of Kerala has some of the finest beaches in the Indian peninsula. The long coastline extending to more than 500 kms is dotted with numerous lighthouses, beach resorts and fishing harbours.
A year round tourism destination, this was made possible because of the unique climatic conditions, which shows little variations during the four seasons. This unique climatic condition has few parallels anywhere in the world. While few visitors visit other parts of the country during winter, in Kerala most of the hotels and resorts teem with tourists from all destinations in all seasons.
