<< Kerala Culture

Kannur is a land with a resonant past, inhabited by people with warmth and hospitality. Myths and legends abound in the district. The ships of Solomon, they say, anchored along its coasts to collect timber for building the Temple of the Lord here. Kannur finds mention as NAURA in the Periplus of the Erithrean Sea a Greek work of great antiquity.

Tucked far away from the maddening crowd, lies Kannur, the most enchanting district of Northern Kerala. The scene is breathtaking. The Lakshadweep Sea washes the sands of sugary beaches laced with rows of green coconut palms. Long rivers break into silvery spray and merge into the blue green waters of the sea. Obviously Kerala is the most beautiful of all Indian states and Kannur definitely shows Kerala at its best.

The ancient Kolathiri kingdom that ruled here was known for its patronage of the development of the distinct arts forms and culture of North Kerala and in a very distinct way influenced the evolution of the distinctive cultural ethos of the entire state of Kerala. Nowhere is it so visible as in Kannur. Thaliparamba, near Kannoor, became a renowned center of learning, enlightenment and culture during the 14th and 15th centuries, under the Kolathiri Rajas. As was the case in the olden days , temples were intimately linked as the icons of culture and so it was that the famous Thaliparamba temple developed into a renowned cultural centre.

Thalassery is the seat of the martial art Kalari Payattu, the forerunner of Karate & Kung-Fu. Around 40 Kalari arenas of the martial art are spread around the district. Kalari Chikitsa and Marma Chikitsa, a special type of physiotherapy treatment for diseases as well as toning up the body is also a specialty here.
