Mahabali, one of the most powerful kings of Asuras was blessed with immortality by Lord Vishnu for his generosity. He lives in the realms below earth called Suthala. He was a very popular king and he too loved his subjects dearly. Therefore, it is a belief that he took permission from Lord Vishnu to visit them yearly. Onam is the most important harvest festival of Kerala. It is celebrated to honor King Mahabali who visits “Kerala” at that time. Kerala opens up with an entirely new world of an exotic taste, exquisite fragrances, and an enchanting display of beauty for the tourists when Onam is being celebrated.
