Thrissur, ‘the Cultural Capital of Kerala’ is truly a chest of traditional marvels intertwined with the ever-evolving global business standards. This city has become the seat of major financial and commercial hubs with a large number of business groups based out from here. Yet, it remains entrenched in the glorious past. Home to the iconic Thrissur pooram and many important religious shrines, this city has a celebrated identity among global travellers. The Vadakkunnathan Temple, Paramekkavu Bagavathi Temple, Our Lady of Dolours Syro-Malabar Catholic Basilica and Cheraman Juma Mosque are important religious places that have special roles to play in the cultural and social history of Kerala.

The Shankthan Thampuran Nagar, one of the biggest business districts in the state is named after the architect of Thrissur and the powerful ruler of the Kingdom of Cochin. His skilful design of the city has now made it a major attraction for people around the world. With Kerala’s second-largest private bus depot and several government offices and private companies, ST Nagar has grown to be a major hub of economic and commercial transactions.
