Malayala is the language spoken predominantly in the beautiful state of Kerala, an increasingly popular tourist destination on the tropical Malabar coast of south-western India.

The language is also spoken in the union territories of Lakshadweep & Pondicherry, & by populations all over the world. Malayalam has a rich literary tradition & its speakers are among India`s foremost intellectuals.
