Kerala has always enchanted everybody with its enchanting beauty and the panorama of lovely landscapes, beaches, waterways, coconut palms and wildlife. There are many attractive places in Kerala.

One of the important cities in Kerala is Kochi or Cochin, which is known for the breathtaking beauty of the union of the sea and sky. The beautiful sky over the harbor and the swelling of the untamed ocean is an epitome of beauty. It is a treat to watch the Vembanad Kayal, the largest lake in Kerala, looking silver gray in the daylight, with a couple of country boats moving ponderously slow over the vastness of the water.

Kottayam is another attractive city in the state of Kerala. Kottayam literally means fort (kotta) and inside (akkam). Kottayam is very famous among the tourists for its exotic backwaters. It is basically a mountainous region and is rich in scenic landscapes, backwaters, bird sanctuaries, temples and churches.

Palakkad is also known as the granary of Kerala. It is famous for its valleys, hillocks, rivers, forests, mountain streams, dams and irrigation projects. It is situated at the foot of the Western Ghats and is the gateway of Kerala from the North. Palakkad is a composition of the words Pala (the Alsteria Scholaris tree) and Kadu (forest). It was once a beautiful stretch of forests covered with the fragrant flowers of Pala tree.Many other places in Kerala are gifted with natural beauty that has touched the hearts of a million.
