With a large number of temples-big and small- flourishing here, Thrissur can truly be called a Temple City. Sree Vadkkunnathan Temple, Thiruvambady and Paramekkavu are the foremost among these. The Thiruvambady temple was originally situated in a village 15 km away from Thrissur and the main deity Lord Krishna, was, some five centuries ago, brought to Thrissur. This caused the establishment of Thiruvambady Temple at Thrissur.
The Thrissur Pooram consisting of processions of fully caparisoned elephants, choicest percussion ensembles like Panchavadyam and Pandimelom, and a colourful display of fireworks has no parallel for comparison. With illuminations, festoons, pandals and welcome arches, the town turns itself into a varitable paradise during the Pooram season.
