Fort Cochin, the historic center of Kochi, has a distinct charm. The heritage town is also the venue for the Kochi Muziris Biennale, a wonderful art event that brings together artists from all over India and the world and runs from December to March.

Fort Cochin is the epicentre of the South Indian cultural melting pot - from old world, lantern-lit Chinese fishing nets to an ancient Sephardic synagogue, a Dutch Palace, and a rambling spice market, there’s so much to see and do that one can spend days here. One can simply walk the streets, browse through local markets, delve deep into old antique shops, or spend an afternoon at a gallery without really knowing where the time goes.
