Dates: February 11-22 and February 23 – March 6 Kerala is truly God's own country with the Arabian Sea in the west, the Western Ghats towering 500-2700 metres in the east and networked by forty-four rivers The state enjoys unique geographical features that have made it one of the most sought after tourist destinations in Asia. Kerala with its evergreen mountains, dense forests, stately palms, swift flowing rivers, extensive backwaters and blue lagoons, looks like a fairyland. This atmosphere of beauty and peace has nurtured religion and art in Kerala and enabled it to become a precious gem in the necklace of Indian culture. Indian poets of eminence have showered their praises for the abundance of its peppers, the fragrance of its sandal and the wealth of its coconuts. No part of India is so widely known or has played so important a part in world history as Kerala. In 52 AD, St Thomas, one of the 12 disciples of Jesus Christ, is believed to have come to Muziris and established the first church in Kerala. Portuguese discovered the sea route to India from Europe when Vasco DA Gama landed with his ship near Kappad in Calicut in AD 1498. Slowly, Kerala society became a mix of people belonging to various sects of Christianity, Islam and Hinduism. After the arrival of Portuguese, the route was followed by the Dutch, the French and finally by the British.
