Balaramapuram Weaving Village - Chaliya Street

This is where Balaramapuram’s handloom story lives. The weaving tradition here grew under the patronage of the Travancore royal family, with weaver families brought from Tamil Nadu and settled in dedicated streets. Generations later, the looms are still part of the neighbourhood. Walk down Chaliya Street and you are walking through a piece of living textile history — not behind glass, but woven into everyday life.
