Kuttanad

Kuttanad is a unique region in Kerala, India, famous for its below-sea-level farmland. Often called the "Granary of Kerala," it has extensive paddy fields and is one of the few places in the world where farming occurs below sea level. The area features a network of interconnected rivers, canals, and waterways, making boat transportation common. Kuttanad's innovative farming practices, combined with its scenic backwaters and rich biodiversity, make it a vital agricultural hub and a popular destination for eco-tourists and Kerala's backwater tourism.
