Road Map of kerala
There's no other place in India where one can find great bodies of water but Kerala. Known as the land of rivers and backwaters, it has forty-four rivers crisscrossing the state along with countless runlets. Forty one of these rivers flow west while three flow east. These monsoon-fed rivers turn into rivulets during the summer, especially those in the upper parts of Kerala.
Lying along the Southwest corner of the Indian peninsula, Kerala is a green strip of land and only accounts for only 1.18 percent of India's total area.
The state may be divided into three geographical regions namely the high lands, the midlands and the lowlands. Sloping down from the Western Ghats are the highlands, which rise to an average height of 99 meters. |
