Mattancherry Palace |
|
Locally known as the Dutch Palace, the two storey building was actually erected by the Portuguese, as a gift to the Cochin Raja. The murals that adorn some of its rooms are among the finest examples of Kerala's much underrated school of painting, freizes illustrating stories from the Ramayana, on the first floor, date from the sixteenth century. |
