Kerala, widely dubbed ‘God’s Own Country’, has been established for more than 2 decades as one of India’s premier tourist destinations. Historic Fort Cochin, the lush paddy fields and expansive backwaters network of canals and streams around Alleppey, the emerald carpet of tea estates stretching to every horizon at Munnar, herds of elephants drinking and bathing by a lake high in the mountains, and long sandy beaches lapped by an azure-blue sea, Kerala has a bit of everything.
