An Evening Walk Around Vadakkunnathan Temple
Lamps, temple drums and the open Thekkinkadu Maidan — a slow evening at the heart of Thrissur.
Vadakkunnathan Temple stands on a hillock in the centre of Thrissur, surrounded by the open Thekkinkadu Maidan and the Swaraj Round. It is one of the finest examples of classical Kerala temple architecture, with tiled roofs, carved wooden halls and old mural paintings.
The temple grounds host Thrissur Pooram, the festival that makes the town famous across Kerala. Check dress code and entry rules at the gate before you go in.
