With the Arabian Sea in the west, the Western Ghats towering 500-2700 m in the east and networked by 44 rivers, Kerala enjoys unique geographical features that have made it one of the most sought after tourist destinations in Asia. An equable climate.

Ayurvedic health holidays. Enchanting art forms. Magical festivals. Hi!5storic and cultural monuments. An exotic cuisine... All of which offer you a unique experience.
