The Portuguese discovery of the sea route to India was the first recorded trip directly from Europe to India, via the Cape of Good Hope.[1] Under the command of Portuguese explorer Vasco da Gama, it was undertaken during the reign of King Manuel I in 1495–1499. Considered one of the most remarkable voyages of the Age of Discovery, it initiated the Portuguese maritime and trade presence in Kerala and the Indian Ocean.[2][3]
