- The traditional ritualized dance in this region features elaborate makeup, exaggerated gestures, and hypnotic music.""Performances customarily last all night long, but you can always drop in for a short show
- For millennia, this area thrived as one of the world\s spice capitals.""References to its peppery past go back as far as 3000 BC
- These plantations continue a local culture of tea cultivation dating back thousands of years.""Here along the \"spice coast,\" nothing beats a spicy cup of the original chai
- Large wooden houseboats called ketuvalloms ply the sinuous backwaters in this Indian state.""Once used to transport dry goods to the interior, now they mainly ferry tourists for romantic cruises
