kerala karnataka tour ..
|
Kerala is a sanctuary of living traditions
of India. You will discover a world of vibrant color, between the green
rice fields and plantations, the white "dhotis" priests officiating in
the temples, pink or bright yellow saffron saris flying in the breeze
and the colorful drawings adorning the large Elephants ... Kerala is
the land of water that the pace of life along the canals and lagoons,
but also a land of tolerance as the conquerors of all faiths, came by
sea, chose to settle, and mixing their cultures with those of Hindu
communities already established in these locations in
abundance.
