The food in Kerala is coconut‐based, however the fiery dishes of Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh might be too much for some unaccustomed western palates. Many travelers do love Tamil Nadu's idlis though, and Hyderabadi biryani is renowned. Food is tradi�onally eaten off a banana leaf with your hands and rice is an important part of meals. Wash it down with some aroma�c south Indian filter coffee (kaapi).

Kathakali is a very unusual and ancient form of dance‐drama that's tradi�onal to Kerala. You won't get to see performers dressed up like this every day, that's for sure! The look, with its red bloodshot eyes, borders on grotesque. The movements of the dance are subtle, yet they tell a meaningful mythological story. Performers are required to undergo intense training, including hours of eye exercises, when learning the art of Kathakali. Kathakali performances can be seen inmany tourist areas of Kerala.

Fes�vals are an excellent way to immerse yourself in south India's culture. The two prominent fes�vals that take place in south India are Onam in Kerala, and Pongal in Tamil Nadu. In the town of Thrissur, a rather quirky part of the Onam fes�val involves the art of Pulikali ‐‐ where men dress up as �gers and parade around! Kerala is also renowned for its elephant fes�vals. The fes�vals, which are part of annual temple celebra�ons, take place all over the state from February to April, with each fes�val running for around 10 days.

When it comes to south India temples, the state of Tamil Nadu dominates with its many ancient, towering Dravidian masterpieces. These temples, which display some of India's greatest temple architecture, are the backbone of Tamil culture. As if the temples aren't cap�va�ng enough, many of them are located in spectacular surroundings including an island, perched high on a rock, and in the remote mountains.

Carnatac music is south India's classical style of music, da�ng back to the 15th century. Its most common form is the kri� ‐‐ a composi�on based on a fixed raga (melody) and tala (rhythm), which involves a great deal of improvisa�on.The greatest concentra�on of Carna�c musicians are found in the city of Chennai, the capital of Tamil Nadu. If you're a fan of Carna�c music, you shouldn't miss the Chennai Music Fes�val held annually in Chennai from mid December to mid January.

SOUTH INDIAN CULTUREThe dis�nc�ve culture of south India (encompassing the states of Kerala, Karnataka,

Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and Tamil Nadu) lends itself to a number of unique and fascina�ng a�rac�ons. These south India cultural a�rac�ons

will provide you with an unforge�able glimpse into the south Indian way of life.
