  • About Kerala

    Kerala is one of the most sought after Tourism destinations in the world today. With its beautiful beaches, backwaters, pristine forests, and landscapes, Kerala is attracting millions of domestic and international tourists each year.

    Kerala is beyond doubt the obscured India. It is God’s own country and an attractively stunning, bright green fleck of land. It is a tropical ecstasy far from the sightseer’s experiment at the southwestern peninsular tip, crammed amid the giant mountains and profound seas. Kerala is a lengthy extension of enthralling foliage.

    Kerala, as a state, came into existence on November 1, 1956. It then consisted of only 5 districts. The number of districts later increased to 14. Kasargod was the last district to be created. The districts are divided into Taluks which are subdivided into villages. At present, there are 63 Taluks and 1452 villages. With a total area of 4480 sq km, Palakkad is the largest district in Kerala, followed by Idukki with a total area of 4479 sq km. Alappuzha with an area of 1414 sq. km is the smallest and is the only district in Kerala without any area under forest cover.

    In February 1990, the Government of Kerala passed an order changing the names of 6 districts and some other places. The old names from its pronunciation in English accent were changed to Malayalam. The table gives below give the old and new names of Kerala districts.
