Dev Bhumi Kerala by Bhagirath Mishra [Hardcover]

Kerala is often referred to as "God's Own Country." On one side stretches the vast Arabian Sea, while on the other rise the Western Ghats, with hills, rivers, and lush green forests nestled in between—making Kerala extraordinarily beautiful. The natural beauty of Kerala, with its blend of sea, mountains, rivers, and forests, is unparalleled. Adding to this charm are the captivating and picturesque beaches, the forests and wildlife sanctuaries, hill stations like Munnar, and the rare experience of spending nights in houseboats on the backwaters.

Moreover, Kerala’s museums, rich with traces of ancient history, and its ancient forts and mansions—bearing marks of the early arrivals and activities of the Arabs, Portuguese, Dutch, and English—still carry the essence of those bygone days. These are a significant attraction for curious travelers. Kerala’s traditional martial arts and natural healing practices have also earned worldwide fame.

The National Geographic Traveler has included Kerala without hesitation in its list of fifty must-visit places across the world and one hundred best holiday destinations of the 21st century. Inspired by all these wonders, the author has penned Devbhoomi Kerala to share the vast experiences gathered during travels, aiming to inspire and excite enthusiastic travelers.
