One of the most influential states of India, the geographical location of the state of Tamil Nadu is such that it has become a pivotal player in shaping India’s political, economic as well as cultural characteristics. An integral part of peninsular India, Tamil Nadu is surrounded by two major water bodies, the Indian Ocean in the sloth as well as the Bay of Bengal in the east. Tamilnadu is also surrounded by the states of Andhra Pradesh on its north and the states of Karnataka and Kerala on the west. The Western Ghats run through the entirety of the state which is also home to Kanyakumari, which is known as the “land’s end for India”.
Climate
A completely tropical climate, Tamil Nadu has extremely hot summers and moderate winters. The summers range from 20 to 40 degrees Celsius during summer. Rainfall is extremely heavy throughout the year and is very helpful in bringing the summer temperature to a more moderate figure. The average annual rainfall in Tamil Nadu remains between 25 and 75 inches per year. Added to these are the pleasant sea breezes, which are moisture-laden and are a relief during the hot summer months of April to June.
