I cannot remember a time that I felt so relaxed and so at peace with the surroundings. A ride through Kerala backwaters gives you a glimpse into a simpler, calmer world. Slowly moving along the backwaters with the wind in your hair is one of the most satisfying times in my life

Close your eyes to the plastic water bottles floating in the water, to the broken fishing boats sitting on the bottom of the canals, and just look ahead, look up and enjoy the beautiful green lushness of the Backwaters, the quiet peaceful sounds of your boat gliding through the water.

There are no varieties of food, North Indians and vegetarians have problems for eating and for staying over there for a few days if they so want. Will anybody from North would like to go and open the North Indian Restaurant

They say it's Gods own country. They could be right, It is really beautiful. We traveled through them on a hotel boat, it is a wonderful experience. There is so much to see, and I would recommend it to anyone.
