Kerala Forest
Periyar Tiger Reserve Forest
It is a purified world in Kerala, the land of trees. A big, spreading tree purifies as much air as a room air-conditioner. And the former is never switched off. The prolific, bustling, vegetation acts like a massive, biological, air-filtration plant working round the clock, round the year. Hence spending days in Kerala countryside is as if spending in an air- purified environs; some times better than it. So is the rejuvenating effect of the lush greenery of the state.
Thattekkad Bird Sanctuary
The sanctuary is spread over an area of 25 square kilometers and is located between the tributaries of the Periyar River. The fascinating birds that are found here are Bee-eater, Falcon Grey, Jungle Fowl, Black Winged Kite, Shrike, Crimson-throated Barbet, Ceylon Frogmouth, Sunbird, Night Heron, Blue winged parakeet, white-breasted water hen, rose-billed Roller, Hornbill, etc. The sanctuary is a paradise for bird watchers and nature lovers
Pampadum Shola National Park
The name´"Pampadum Shola" means, "the forest where the snake dances", derived from three Tamil words, "paamp", which means "snake"; "aattam", means "dance"; and "cholai", means "forest". "Shola" may be considered as a mis-speller of "cholai". This thick green forest is spread in the two states of India, namely, Kerala and Tamil Nadu. It is situated almost 35 km away from Munnar, towards the road to Madhurai, presently to Koviloor and Vattavada. The Old Madhurai Road is closed due to the growing population of Wildlife such as Elephants, Buffaloes and Black Monkeys. There are various types of Medicinal plants, of which studies have been made.
