Highlights
Muziris was an ancient seaport on the Malabar Coast located in the present day South Indian state of Kerala. It was an important trading post of South India that had trade links with the Phoenicians, the Persians, the Egyptians, the Greeks and the Romans. Its history can be traced back to the 1st century B.C. Spices, semi-precious stones, ivory, chinese silks and tortoise shells were some of the products that were exported from here. The exact location of Muziris is not yet known although it is speculated to be around 18 miles from Cochin in the present day town of Kodungallur and the village of Pattanam. On this day-excursion from Cochin explore some of the historical sites near the ancient port of Muziris.
Highlights:
• Chendamangalam handloom weaving factory
• Paliam Nalukettu Museum
• Cheraman Juma Masjid, the first mosque in India
Itinerary
Paravur
2 hoursAdmission Ticket FreeNext visit the spice market of Paravur located on the banks of the backwaters. A vibrant market even today, it is not difficult to visualize goods being unloaded from the traditional boats called ‘vanchis’ and brought to the market. This market is close to the Jewish quarter of the town. Visit the Paravur Synagogue that was built in 1615 and is amongst the largest surviving synagogues in Kerala.Chendamangalam
1 hoursAdmission Ticket FreeYour next stop will be at Chendamangalam handloom factory where the traditional weaving techniques are still kept alive by a women’s cooperative. Today most of the traditional looms of the state have been forced to shut down in the face of competition from modern textiles. Located nearby is a 175 year old Synagogue that has been recently restored. The intricate artwork of the altar here is a sight to behold. Stop at a nearby local restaurant for lunch (own expense). Enjoy a typical South Indian meal with rice, papaddam, rasam, vegetables and chutneys. After lunch visit the Sree Venugopala Krishna Swamy temple, a popular Hindu temple of the area.Paliam Nalukettu
1 hoursAdmission Ticket IncludedDrive next to the Paliam complex and visit Paliam Nalukettu, a 400 years old mansion that is built in an unique mixture of Kerala and Dutch architectural styles. Today the mansion houses a history and lifestyle museum that displays the heirlooms of the Paliam family that can trace its lineage back a thousand years. Drive through the Kottapuram market. The market was a trade center that bears the stamp of both local and foreign influences. This market operates from 3:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Drive on to Kottapuram Fort, built by the Portuguese in 1523 . Situated strategically at the point where the river Periyar joins the Arabian Sea, the Fort was able to control sea traffic to the interior of the Malabar coast.Cheraman Juma Masjid Mosque
1 hoursAdmission Ticket FreeYour last stop will be the Cheraman Juma Masjid, the first mosque in India that was built in 629 A.D. Today people of all religions visit this mosque. At the end of the tour you will be driven back to Cochin and dropped off at your hotel.
