The highest physical quality of life in India. Peaceful and pristine, Kerala is also India’s cleanest State. For administrative purpose, the state of Kerala is divided into fourteen districts. Most of these districts offer all the tourism products typical of the State. 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 states history. From here, you can easily explore the marvellous beaches of Varkala and Kovalam.
A trip you can’t refuse when you are 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 places of the former days.
