Kerala is the God's Own Country. The beautiful landscape, intriguing customs, high-intensity cultural life and an educated public so often dressed in white make an excellent tourist spot. Kerala is situated on the southern tip of the Indian mainland. In the coastal belts of Kerala the famous backwaters are the biggest attractions.

For the nature lovers Kerala offers three national parks of Eravikulam, Periyar, and the Silent Valley. Then there are the wildlife sanctuaries of the Wynad, Idukki, Thattekkad and the Nilgiri Biosphere Reserves.
