Kerala as a tourism destination.

On telling you about kerala first of all i would like to say where kerala is located and the composition of kerala land. Arabian Sea is located in the west of kerala. The famous Western Ghats which has an altitude of about 500-2700 ms is situated in the east. Kerala is networked by 44 rivers. Kerala is gifted with unique geographical features that have made it one of the most sought after and highly visited tourist destination not only in asia but also around the world. The climate in kerala is a moderate one. In kerala there won't be extreme heat or extreme cold. The climate is equable through out the year. Kerala is one of the state in india which has got a long seaside with serene beaches. Adding to the beauty of kerala is the tranquil streches of lagoon and backwaters. Hill stations in kerala are romantic and lush with exotic wildlife. Enchanting waterfalls. Plantations and dancing paddy fields. The unique kerala ayurveda and art forms. Truly magical festivals. Monuments which are age old and have got lots of stories to tell and exotic kerala cusine. All these are there to give the visitor with a truly enchanting travel experience. The above mentioned are some of the features of kerala as a state and a quality tourism destination. People come from around the world to experience this great piece of land located in the south of india.

Attracted by many of these unique features of kerala there are many foreigners who once came to visit kerala have settled in kerala with their family. Yesterday when i met one my friend who is from vizhinjam trivandrum has told me that there are lots of people from different countries has who has settled in the state of kerala. My wife who is working in a tourism office in trivandrum has told me that yesterday a lady from california has dropped in to their office. The foreigner lady has asked only one thing that is where she can get the uniquely made fish curry of kerala. She told that she wanted 'adipoli fish curry'. Actually there isn't a dish named 'adipoli'. Aidpoli is a word used in malayalam to express that something is great or extraordinary. This reveals the popularity is kerala cuisines around the world. It is true that kerala is one of kind place in this world.
