This has been the best birthday I have ever had in my life. I was mesmerized by the incredible display of jasmine, marigold, roses, carnations and many others. The view under the stars was breathtaking. We saw four shooting stars. I have travelled the world, but never have I experienced anything quite like this. This is our first visit to Kerala. A magical experience

The breathtaking natural splendour of Kerala turned out to be a delightful birthday present for Sir Paul McCartney. This former Beatle was here in Kerala to witness the pristine gifts of Kerala’s natural bounty. The visit coincided with his birthday and given above are his impression on Kerala. 

Sir Paul had cast the magical spell of his musical prowess to millions worldwide as a member of the highly acclaimed group ‘Beatles’ and after leaving the band continued to charm his fans around the world with his unique style, which is again a rarity among British singers.
