Otherwise a state on the tropical Malabar
Coast of southwestern India, Kerala is a very prominent
staple in Southern India Tours.
South India Tourism
is Kerala's economic mainstay and for good reason – its
beaches are among the finest in India.
Waters here
tend to be as azure as the best beaches in the world,
but its backwaters effortlessly kill the competition.
The Kerala Backwaters refer to a chain of brackish
lagoons and lakes lying parallel to the Malabar Coast.

The network includes five large lakes linked by 1500 kilometers’ worth
of manmade and natural canals, fed by 38 rivers. These water
formations were the result of the action of waves and shore
currents.
South India Tour itineraries esteem Vembanad Lake as
the largest of these lakes, which covers an area of 200
sq km.
The port of Cochin is located at the lake's opening
to the Arabian Sea.
Kettuvallam or Kerala houseboats
set adrift on the backwaters are one of the best tourist
draws here.
Every August, the lake is set for the Vallam
Kali or the Snake Boat Race.
The backwaters are beautiful in themselves, but the
beaches of Kerala are also outstanding. |
