Thalassery

Kannur situated in the northern part of Kerala enjoys a cultural significance that is distinct from the rest of the districts of Kerala. Formerly known as Cannanore, Marco Polo christened it a ‘Great Emporium Of Spice Trade’.

Thalassery in Kannur is famed for its heritage sites and historical places. The Cultural Circuit, a detailed storytelling narrative on the cultural heritage of Malabar, consists of 14 destinations spanning across the Kannur district. This circuit covers virtually every important aspect of life, from architecture to folk arts to tales of mighty warriors and their kingdoms to temples and the glorious past of indigenous handloom.
