Fort Kochi Heritage Walk Day Trip

Kochi

Fort Kochi is a small peninsula with four hundred years of Portuguese, Dutch and British building packed into it. The day walks it properly: the Chinese fishing nets on the water, St Francis Church where Vasco da Gama was buried, the Dutch Palace with its Ramayana murals at Mattancherry, the Paradesi Synagogue in Jew Town, and the spice warehouses that made the whole place worth fighting over. Evening at the Kathakali performance if you want it.
