| The name "Thrissur" means the "town of Lord Shiva". It has aptly been called the cultural capital of Kerala. The town of Thrissur, built on a hillock, is famous for the Vadakkumnathan Temple, dedicated to Lord Shiva. The city is also famous for the Pooram Festival, which attracts tourists from far and wide. The Pooram, celebrated in the month of May, features an elephant parade. Culture enthusiasts should definitely visit the Art Museum at Thrissur which houses collections of wooden, metal and ivory sculptures, testifying to the rich cultural heritage of Thrissur.
