A small yet busy city, Kozhikode or Calicut, is a place that is located towards the northern part of Kerala. It is not just a harbor but a land of splendid beaches, aromatic spices like black pepper and cardamom, pleasing country sides and warm people.
The town was long conquered by foreign powers and has much historical significance. Despite the Western influence, Kozhikode has its own unique identity and is proud of its culture and tradition. Apart from this, Kozhikode was the place where Vasco da Gama landed and discovered the route to India via the southern cape of Africa. The place has been the major attraction for many countries as trade is easily carried out from this region.
The well established connections with Kerala help you reach Kozhikode easily by railways, airways and buses. The town witnesses maximum influx of tourists all round the year because of its vast collection of nature's delights including heritage homes, gushing springs and waterfalls, blue seas and magnificent temples. On a plus side the beautiful bird sanctuary, swanking shopping malls and mananchira square are nature lover’s retreat.
With a town having so much to offer, wander down from the beaches to bazaars, wildlife to wellness spas, paintings of Raja Ravi Verma's, the tasty Halwa accompanied with simplicity and depth of people of Kerala and its history, are the reasons it attracts a good number of art enthusiasts and tourists to spend an ideal holiday and assure you that experience that will be cherished forever.
