It
is more than 14 years since Kasaragod district was formed. Kasargod is
still a backward district. If the development of Kasargod is to be
completed, t
It is with this aim
the District Tourism Promotion Council had been striving for the last few
years.
Kasargod would occupy a prominent place in the tourist map of
India, when Bekal tourism project, worth of Rs. 1000 crores comes info
existence.
Lying on
the
northwestern coast of state, Kasaragod was famous from time immemorial.
Many arab travelers, who came Kerala between 9th and 14th
centuries A.D., visited Kasaragod as it was then an important trade
centre.
They called these areas Harkwillia. Mr.barbose, the Portuguesse
traveller, who visited Kumbala near Kasaragod in 1514, had recorded that
rice was exported to Male Island whence coir was imported.
