Kerala
is truly the undiscovered India. It is God's own country and an enchantingly
beautiful, emerald-green sliver of land. It is a tropical paradise far from
the tourist trial at the southwestern peninsular tip, sandwiched between the
tall mountains and the deep sea. Kerala is a long stretch of enchanting greenery.
The tall exotic coconut palm dominates the landscape.
Kerala is a green strip of land, in the South West corner of Indian peninsula.
It has only 1.1 8 per cent of the total area of the country but houses 3.43%
of the the country's population.
Kerala houses all major world religions. From early recorded days ,Kerala had
been forthcoming towards newer faiths from alien cultures. According to the
1991 census, 60% of the state population is Hindus. Muslims and Christians constitute
20 % each.
Kerala, the visitors' paradise, has soul-cleansing centres too. Pilgrim centres
of all religions abound this tiny state. Thousands throng such centres with
agitated minds and return cool, calm and collected.
