Just like the popular Thai massages, you will find many such parlours spread across Kerala. Ayurveda is an age old medicinal therapy that is practiced in many households.<br /><br />Kovalam is a quaint little habitat away from the otherwise congested tourist destinations.<br /><br />Feel free to reach out for more tips if you planning on visiting here soon. :) happy to help!Sensuous2Spiritualhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17019181153902256004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5907917987670913728.post-26573456980439215532016-02-17T17:57:17.377-08:002016-02-17T17:57:17.377-08:00Loved reading this and learning about a destinatio...Loved reading this and learning about a destination I've never heard of.

The elephatnts are a very important feature of all religious celebrations in Kerala where they are adorned in beautiful fineries and also worshiped. These elephants also help lug logs from the dense jungles which are further traded in the open markets.<br /><br />The elephants get a monthly salary and get pension on retirement for their contribution through their services. :)<br /><br />I am sure this bit of the factual revelation will get you a bit more intrigued in wanting to visit the Rehab Center.

The houses in Kerala ...Yes Tamar. It actually is! <br /><br />The houses in Kerala are fairly opulent and ornate. The warm light from the oil lamp which is placed at the center of the courtyard looks quiet dramatic during the early evening hours! It is definitely one of the things you need to experience when in Kerala. Continues to be popular feature in the villages.<br /><br />Kovalam is stunning. It is one of the bluest waters I have seen on the Indian shores. Highly recommended...
