Kerala history

The Kerala coast has been the point of entry into India for Christianity and Islam, both finding amiable acceptance among the local population. Both religions in Kerala have in many ways been influenced by local traditions in architecture, iconography and rituals. Today you will find that Kerala is perhaps one the most secular states in India. As a consequence of this history, in the course of your journeys around Kerala, you will find many religious sites of great antiquity, churches temoples and mosques. The church at Arthunkal is one such monument.
