The birth place of Thacholi Othenan - the legendary hero of the Vadakkanpattu (ballads of North Malabar),Vadakara boasts a great martial tradition and was a flourishing trade and commerce centre in ancient times.
Thacholi Manikkoth, the kalari where Thacholi Othenan practised his martial feats and spent long days in deep meditation before every poythu (duel), is a place worth visiting.
