From the folks of Kathakali to the traditional forms of Oppana and Margam Kali, Kerala beautifies the confluence of religions in the state. A huge part of the Malayalam culture is their art and cinema which has proven to have better artistic expression than the charismatic Bollywood. Onam (harvest festival) and Ona Sadhya (Onam feast) are distinct features of their culture, which bring together all Keralites under one roof. Kerala has its own martial art form, the Kalarippayattu, which is slowly reviving from the suppression it faced during British Raj. The spice and coffee of the state hold a special place in the hearts of the Indians. The brackish lagoons called the Backwaters singly attract the most tourism and help in decluttering and sorting ones priorities in just one boat ride. Kerala is an experience one should have.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The massive forts located in the beaches, cities and remote interiors of Kerala speak volumes on the waterfront turbulence of a bygone era when these structures were used for defense. Kerala possesses a fine integration of diverse cultures absorbed into society during different periods in history. Different religious communities have made their home in Kerala since the early days and each group has contributed some aspects of its unique culture and lifestyle and left an impact.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Some of the architectural marvels of Kerala housing a rich cultural legacy and proud heritage include the center of art &amp; culture, Kerala Kalamandalam in Thrissur, the ancient wooded Padmanabhapuram Palace near Thiruvananthapuram, the famous Bekal Fort in Kasargode echoing the war cries and rebellion of yore, and the Napier Museum in the state capital chronicling the complete history of Kerala through antiques and artifacts.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Kerala\u2019s culture is influenced by three major religions of the state \u2013 Hinduism, Islam and Christianity. The state livens up during all the major festivals celebrated by the people of these three faiths. If you are the artsy traveller, Kerala\u2019s art and culture will nurture your artistic soul.
