  • PONNANI PEPPER PROJECT History Ponnani Is Popularly Known As “The Mecca of Kerala”
    PONNANI PEPPER PROJECT HISTORY Ponnani is popularly known as “the Mecca of Kerala”. As an ancient harbour city, it was a major trading hub in the Malabar region, the northernmost end of the state. There are many tales that try to explain how the place got its name. According to one, the prominent Brahmin family of Azhvancherry Thambrakkal once held sway over the land. During their heydays, they offered ponnu aana [elephants made of gold] to the temples, and this gave the land the name “Ponnani”. According to another, due to trade, ponnu [gold] from the Arab lands reached India for the first time at this place, and thus caused it to be named “Ponnani”. It is believed that a place that is referred to as “Tyndis” in the Greek book titled Periplus of the Erythraean Sea is Ponnani. However historians have not been able to establish the exact location of Tyndis beyond doubt. Nor has any archaeological evidence been recovered to confirm this belief. Politically too, Ponnani had great importance in the past. The Zamorins (rulers of Calicut) considered Ponnani as their second headquarters. When Tipu Sultan invaded Kerala in 1766, Ponnani was annexed to the Mysore kingdom. Later when the British colonized the land, Ponnani came under the Bombay Province for a brief interval of time. Still later, it was annexed Malabar and was considered part of the Madras Province for one-and-a-half centuries. Until 1861, Ponnani was the headquarters of Koottanad taluk, and with the formation of the state of Kerala in 1956, it became a taluk in Palakkad district.

  • Chapter- Iv Analysis and Interpretation
    CHAPTER- IV ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION 1. Foreign Exchange Earnings for the year 2014 is Rupees 6398.93 crores. During 2014, the domestic tourist arrival was 116, 95,411 (an increase of 7.71%) whereas Foreign Tourist Arrival was 9, 23, 366 (an increase of 7.60%) over the previous year’s figure. 2. Kerala, the Malayalam speaking region, has made valuable contributions to the world culture and one of them, is the institution of Kalari. Tacholi Othenan, the undisputed exponent and all time great of Kalarippayattu, was born in 1584. After his death at the age of thirty-two, the people of Malabar made a cult hero of him and eventually deified and worshipped him as a demi-god. 3. Irrespective of caste, community, sex, religion and social status, the people of Kerala learnt the art of payattu. 4. Nearly half of foreign tourists visit Kalari for Rejuvenation therapy. 28.57 per cent domestic tourists visit Kalari for Martial Arts and 31.97 per cent for Rejuvenation Therapy. Rejuvenation therapy helps for longevity, memory, intellect, positive health, youth, excellent complexion and strength of sensory organs. Main aim of this therapy is to maintain the youth of the individual along with the maintaining of his long life. It is a costly affair but the enjoyment derived is maximum. It is expected by the Tourism Department that in 2021, 30 Lakhs foreign tourists and 180 Lakhs domestic tourists visit Kerala. According to Kerala Tourism statistics, Foreign tourist arrivals to Kerala in 2014 showed an increase of 7.60% compared to the previous year.

  • Annur, a Village Which Plays Chef
    A village which plays chef www.bekaltourism.com www.bekaltourism.com TAnnurhe vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes of north Kerala are world famous, and among them the most sought-after are the traditionally prepared vegetarian dishes of the village of Annur in north Malabar. Annur is situated in the small town of Payyanur in Kannur district. The cooks of the region are so talented that they can send foodies to peaks of gustatory delight with their indigenous methods of preparation. www.bekaltourism.com The most mouth-watering dish on offer at Annur is green gram pudding. The main ingredients are green gram, high quality jaggery and ghee [clarified butter]. The culinary artist works his ultimate magic when he adds dry ginger powder, cardamom powder and golden, ghee-roasted cashews. Unlike other parts of Kerala, Annur village does not add raisins in this pudding. This is to prevent the sourness of raisins to upset the delicate taste of the pudding as it cools. www.bekaltourism.com Koottu kari is a sure item in any traditional feast in north Malabar. Of all the varieties prepared across Kerala, the Annur version is easily the best. It is as though yam and raw banana, the chief vegetables used in Koottu kari, yield their special flavours only to the Annur chefs. Annur village in north Malabar waits patiently for connoisseurs who wander in search of dishes that will pamper their palates. Green gram pudding and Koottu kari are not the only items that woo such gustatory nomads. There is a mind-boggling variety that has the power to send every gourmet into a virtual journey of taste-experiences.
