Vacation In Kerala A Great Place To Spend Your Holidays In Kerala.

Kerala, as they call it, is God"s own country

, so naturally it brims with scenic beauty whether it is the villages and towns of the state or large patches of wilderness and water bodies. Being a tropical region its weather is perfect for holidays and vacationing. There are 100s of interesting things you can do and see in Kerala, and some of them are listed below:

Get an elephant ride in the Periyar Wildlife Park: Experience the feral beauty of the tropical wilderness from the majestic back of an elephant.

Spend some time in an exotic boat: There are some beautiful rivers, lakes and waterfalls in Kerala and there are many water bodies that enable you to send some relaxing and enervating time while the waves gently rock your boat.

Walk through paddy fields: The dazzling green of the paddy fields is simply going to take your breath away. Ideally you should have a walk through paddy fields in Kerala during an overcast sky and a mildly windy day.

Have a taste of toddy: Visiting Kerala and not exposing your taste buds to the tangy flavour of the toddy doesn"t complete your holiday. It is a local liquor extracted from the tall palm trees. It is also called palm wine.

Get some good massage: By now Kerala massage is omnipresent, literally. But why not get it from the place of its origin? The various Kerala massage routines will totally rejuvenate your senses physically as well as spiritually.

Witness boat race: Boat racing is one of the biggest events that take place in Kerala. The oldest boat racing event in the state is known as Aranmula Uthrattadi Vallamkali and it is held during the festival of Onam.

Attend cultural festivals: Kerala is a hub of cultural activities like dance, singing and drama. The most famous dance and singing form that originates from Kerala is Kathakali which is basically a dance drama. Even watching Kathakali artists putting on make-up is considered to be highly entertaining.

Visit Athirappilly Falls: These falls are in the Western Ghats "" one of the most important biodiversity hotspots in the world. These balls are not only massive they are also breathtakingly beautiful. Aside from being an elephant conservation area it is also a haven for various species of birds.

Go for trekking: We have already mentioned the Periyar Tiger reserve above in the context of having an elephant ride. The place is also safe enough for trekking expeditions. You can opt for day treks, night treks and you can also include bamboo river rafting in the itinerary.

Watch the bullock race: With many animal rights organisations opposing the event the government and the local bodies have introduced lots of reforms but this is one of the most exciting events you can attend in Kerala. People often get injured in these races but if you watch them from a safe distance they are highly entertaining.

Go for train rides: Even random travelling in Kerala can be a great experience. Just sit by the window as the train rolls and let the beauty of the land seep in.
