Come for the nature, stay for the culture
Tourists come to Kerala for the state’s natural blessings, but they return again and again for the eclectic culture. Aside from coconut-lined beaches and backwaters, another fascinating lure to this part of South India is its unique blend of the Western and the traditional. Even though it appears very modern, Kerala culture is rooted in Ayurveda, shamans, and vibrant festivals.
