Located on the Malabar Coast of Kerala, Kannur, also known as Cannanore, is a stunning city with plenty to explore. From beautiful beaches and ancient temples to fascinating monuments and cozy picnic spots, Kannur has it all.

Steeped in the unique local art form of Theyyam, Kannur still retains the charm of its colonial past. The influences of the Dutch, Portuguese, British, and the Mysore Sultanate are evident throughout the town. Known as the land of looms, Kannur’s exceptional weaving skills and sprawling cashew plantations, likely introduced by the Portuguese, are remarkable.
