SOUTH INDIA · KERALA

Kerala

God's Own Country

Misted tea hills, spice-scented forests and quiet backwaters — the greenest, calmest corner of India, waiting to be explored.

ABOUT THE DESTINATION

India's Green Coastline

Kerala sits along India's southwestern tip, wedged between the Arabian Sea and the Western Ghats — a narrow strip of land packed with an almost unfair amount of scenery. In one state you get misted hill stations covered in tea, a 900km network of calm backwater canals lined with coconut palms, wildlife-rich forests, and a coastline of quiet beaches.

It moves at its own pace. Houseboats drift rather than cruise. Ayurvedic traditions here go back centuries, not decades. And the food — built around coconut, curry leaf and fresh spice — is reason enough to visit on its own. Locals simply call it what the tourism board made official: God's Own Country.
