Kottayam Tourist Places: Fusion of Nature & Tradition

Kerala, in the Indian subcontinent, is home to the ancient cultural town of Kottayam, also famously called the "Land of Letters, Lakes, and Latex." It occupies an important position in India's education, literary, and agricultural sectors. It is one of the first regions in India to achieve close to full literacy and is also home to many pioneering educational institutions.

This town historically was very crucial for the Indian independence movement as well as for the development of the Malayalam language. The first ever Malayalam printing press is said to have based its operations in this region, giving it prominence as a center for literature and learning. Renowned writers, journalists, and scholars who have done massive contributions towards the lively literary scene in Kerala have had homes here.
