Trivandrum Padmanabhaswamy Temple & City Day Trip

Thiruvananthapuram

Thiruvananthapuram is a slow, green capital built on low hills, and the Padmanabhaswamy temple is its centre — a Dravidian temple of enormous scale and unusual strictness, with the deity reclining on a serpent. The day adds the Puthen Malika palace next door, the Napier Museum and the Sri Chitra Art Gallery, and a walk through the old fort area around the temple.
