DUTCH PALACE: The Palace was gifted by the Portuguese to the King of Cochin but later the Dutch carried out some renovations and extensions and so it is called the Dutch palace. Currently, it is a portrait gallery of mythological murals of the Hindu temple art. It is constructed in traditional style with a European influence. The deity of the royal family, 'PazhayannurBhagavathi' (the Goddess of Pazhayannur) is placed in the central courtyard.
