Choosing the Destinations to Visit in God’s Own Country, Kerala
When visiting a location that is known to be “God’s Own Country”, one can expect to find several locations of interest that would appeal to a person’s soul. These destinations may vary from beautiful landscapes to ancient palaces. As different as each site may be, each one offers the same spellbinding effect that one might get from watching a world class act, and leaves that long staying feeling of awe that lingers hours after the site has been left behind.
There are so many sites that one could visit while one a Kerala tour. It would be good to review all the sites when building your own Kerala Tour Package though just to make sure that every member of the tour would have something that he or she could find interesting. With the number of destinations in the state of Kerala, it’s definite that every member of the family would find something of interest during the tour.
Take the city of Kumarakom as an example. This is a small village that is composed of a number of small islands that are on a lake. Nature lovers would love to add this to their Kerala tour because the area is a bird sanctuary that spans over 14 acres. Although there are a lot of other items that can be done, just to sit down in one spot and watch all the migratory birds would be enough to bring peace to one’s spirit. One can even couple that activity with a little fishing in order to mix some excitement with the serenity of the surroundings.
When preferring to commune with nature, one can add the Eravikulam National Park which is located a few kilometers from Munnar. Perfect for trekking and hiking, this park spans 97 square kilometers of land and houses several species of rare plants and birds, including the endangered “Nilgiri Tahr”, which is also known as the Nilgiri Ibex. People here come to watch the animals in their natural habitat, then proceed to the Anamudi Peak, which is the highest peak of South India. Standing 2,700 feet above sea level, the peak offers a great view of the tea plantations that surround the area.
If one gets tired of communing with nature, then a trip to the beach would be a wise choice to finish up the Kerala Tour package. Kovalam would be the ideal resting spot, as it has been a favorite of tourists since the 1930s, and favorite spots become that for a very good reason. Here one can find pleasure in more than just a number of ways, as beaches and swimming pools are abundant, as well as ayurvedic centers that would simply massage your worries away.
There is much beauty that is to be found in Kerala, and one would find that building a Kerala Tour Package would be almost as exciting as taking the tour itself. Don’t just settle for a tour package that has already been thrown together for you. Instead, know what there is to get, and build the tour for yourself. The hard work will make the experience a lot more rewarding for you and the people you are with.
