Thrissur Vadakkunnathan & Pooram Ground Day Trip
Thrissur calls itself the cultural capital of Kerala, and it has a fair case: the Vadakkunnathan temple in the middle of the town, the Sakthan Thampuran palace, and the Pooram ground where the Thrissur Pooram — the largest temple festival in the state, held in April or May — fills the town with caparisoned elephants, drum orchestras and a fireworks display that runs all night.
