Once the Durbar Hall for the Rajas of Cochin, today it is the building for the Parishath Thampuran Museum. Constructed in the typical Kerala style of architecture the whole building is adorned with exquisite sculptures. This museum is famed for housing rare 19th century oil paintings, old coins, and exhibits of the royalty, sculptures and ancient Mughal paintings. The old world charm lingers for long after your visit to the museum.
