Tamil
Nadu, the heart of the Dravidian culture and tradition, has for time immemorial,
been a pioneer of peace and knowledge, and the visual legacy of the culture of
the state, is among the most satisfying spectacles in India. Sharing boundaries
with the states of Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, and Kerala, Tamil Nadu has an unbroken
coast line, edging the Bay of Bengal. Densely forested uplands which abound in
wildlife, intensively cultivated farmlands interspersed with rocky wastes, mountain
chains of the Western Ghats, which give way to fertile coastal plains and plateaus
form the geographical features of Tamil Nadu.
