In a proud moment for Kerala, the state has been listed by TIME magazine among 50 extraordinary destinations to explore in its list of the world’s greatest places of 2022.
In a profile, TIME said that in the southwest coast of India, “Kerala is one of India’s most beautiful states. With spectacular beaches and lush backwaters, temples, and palaces, it’s known as God’s own country for good reason.”
“This year, Kerala is boosting motor-home tourism in India to inspire a new pas de deux of exploration and accommodation. The state’s first caravan park, Karavan Meadows, opened in Vagamon, a scenic hill station,” it said.
“In the wake of the state’s success with houseboat cruising, caravans are expected to follow suit suit with a similar promise of sustainable tourism, it said adding that over 1,000 campers have already begun to traverse the land, a fresh and unique way to experience Kerala’s beaches and verdant plantations,” TIME said.
The list also includes Ras Al Khaimah, UAE; Park City, Utah; Seoul; Great Barrier Reef, Australia; The Arctic; Valencia, Spain; Trans Bhutan Trail, Bhutan; International Space Station; Bogota; Lower Zambezi National Park, Zambia; Istanbul and Kigali, Rwanda.
