KERALA STATE in India is widely called as GODS OWN COUNTRY. (Its been predicted as Gods own Country by a seer lived long back, forseen that a great spiritually enlightened person would take place in Kerala in 20th century and people would worship him as God. Also Nostradamus(an astrologer lived in the 16th century in France) who also made some prophecies about this enlightned person as he would take birth at a place where 3 seas meet together , and of course Kerala is been surronded by 3 occeans.Thus the name came as Gods own country.)
Kerala, the land of rivers and backwaters is a green strip of land, in the South West corner of Indian peninsula. Kerala is a state with full literacy, Higher Health care and lower mortality ratio. In Kerala you experience freshness and touch of mother earth every where. No wonder keralites call their State "God's Own Country".
The National Geographic magazine has named Kerala as one of the ten Paradises Found in the world!
The Kerala State Tourism Department has rightly named our state The God's Own Country. Kerala means the land of coconuts. And boy! we do have coconuts, arecanuts and also nuts like me in abundance!

With the Arabian Sea in the west, the Western Ghats towering 500-2700 m in the east and networked by forty four rivers, Kerala enjoys unique geographical features that have made it one of the most sought after tourist destinations in Asia. An equable climate. A long shoreline with serene beaches. Tranquil streches of emerald backwaters. Lush hill stations and exotic wildlife. Waterfalls. Sprawling plantations and paddy fields. Ayurvedic health holidays. Enchanting art forms. Magical festivals. Historic and cultural monuments. An exotic cuisine... All of which offer you a unique experience. And what's more, every one of these charming destinations is only a two hour drive from the other. A singular advantage no other destination offers.
Kerala, India's most advanced society : A hundred percent literate people. World-class health care systems. India's lowest infant mortality and highest life expectancy rates. The highest physical quality of life in India. Peaceful and pristine, Kerala is also India's cleanest State.
For administrative purpose, the state of Kerala is divided into fourteen districts. Most of these districts offer all the tourism products typical of the State.

Kerala in India is known as the God's Own Country.
Kerala is a southern state located on the west coast of India.
It is known for its greenery and the boat rides on back waters.
Lot of coconut tress, several varieties of bananas and very nice South Indian food.
Banana chips from this region are popular throught India.
I heard that you can hire a boat for couple of days and sail through the back waters from one town to the other. These boats I heard, offer all the facilities of a hotel room.
Apart from those, Kerala has the distinction of having the highest literacy rate amongst all the states India. So practically you can expect everyone there to speak English.
