Also known as “God’s
own Country”, the pristine beauty of the state of Kerala has today
made the state one of the most popular tourist destinations of
India. Promoting tourism in Kerala are the various tourist
destinations in Kerala, which attract several tourists to the land
with the lure of their rich natural beauty and vibrant culture.
One of these exotic locations in Kerala is Peerumedu or Peermade
as it is also known.
Named after a Sufi
saint Peer Mohammed, Peerumedu is blessed with a history that
forms one of its most important attractions. Located around 85 km
to the east of Kottayam, the weather of Peerumedu is invitingly
cool and moist, a perfect excuse for that weekend getaway to
Peerumedu. The green slopes of the region are also the perfect
place for newly weds to be if they are keen on a honeymoon in
Peerumedu. Surrounded by rich plantations of tea, coffee,
cardamom, rubber and eucalyptus, the entirety of Peerumedu is
enveloped with a fragrance that is heady and delightfully
intoxicating!
