Kerala is yet again making waves in the international tourism circles with the prestigious tourism website Lonely Planet mentioning North Kerala in its list of ‘Top 10 must-see places in Asia for 2017’. North Kerala has been placed third in the list which places Gansu in China and South of Tokyo, Japan in the first and second spots respectively.
The entry by the international travel guidebook gives a major boost to tourism in north Kerala. “Travellers have been making a beeline for Kerala’s southern beaches for years but Northern Kerala has long been the underrated half of the state, concealing its backwater charms and emerging slowly like a butterfly from a chrysalis…,” so starts the piece on the north Malabar in Lonely Planet.
“..The beaches around Kannur, Thottada and Bekal are pristine, and a string of homestays and resorts have sprouted to give in-the-know travellers on all budgets a beachfront view that should make Goa’s hoteliers weep..,” so the article continues to describe the place.
