Posted: February 21, 2018 |
The backwaters of Kerala With India you quickly think of gigantic busy cities where you see the most strange things passing by all day long. The backwaters of Kerala are totally the opposite of this. Here you will find beautiful nature, pure tranquility and you will see the calm rural life of the local population. The banks along the backwaters are chock full of slender palm trees and behind them are often vast green rice fields. There is a village on the water here and there and despite the fact that boats pass by every day, people still wave happily when you pass by. Check Kerala Tour Packages and they will help to plan your trip. The houseboats on the backwaters About 25 years ago the first cruises on the backwaters were offered. At the time, these were simply converted rice boats without electricity or any form of luxury. Nowadays more than 1000 houseboats sail in this enormous area. Some are still fairly basic but most are equipped with air conditioning and comfortable rooms.
