KERALA HAS BEEN RIGHTLY NICKNAMED AS GOD'S OWN COUNTRY ON ACCOUNT OF HER UNIQUE LANDSCAPES,SYLVAN SURROUNDINGS,HILLS
VALLEYS, LAGOONS, WATERFALLS,STREAMS AND THE TYPICAL FLORA
AND FAUNA.THE MONARCHS OF KERALA WERE VERY TOLERANT TO
OTHER RELIGIOUS GROUPS AND GAVE SHELTER TO VARIOUS FOREIGN-
-ERS TO CARRY ON THEIR TRADING ACTIVITIES --
GREEN AND GOLD ARE THE DEFINING COLOURS OF KERALA; GREEN FOR THE TROPICAL LUSHNESS THAT BURSTS FROM EVERY PATCH OF
GROUND IN THE STATES;GOLD FOR THE PROSPERITY THAT HAS FOR
MANY YEARS BEEN A CONSEQUENCE OF THIS ABUNDANCE. YOU SEE
THE TWO IN COMBINATION EVERYWHERE,IN THE BORDERS OF THE
WHITE COTTON MUNDU WORN BY KERALAN MEN,IN THE CEREMONIAL
UMBRELLAS HOISTED OVER TEMPLE DEITIES AS THEY'RE PROCESSED
ON ELEPHANT BACK DURING FESTIVALS,AND THE MAKE-UP OF THE
KATHAKALI HERO,FRAMED BY HIS TRADE-MARK JEWEL-ENCRUSTED
HEADDRESS -- KERALA HAS GOT MANY MORE HIGHLIGHTS -----
