About

A hilltop palace built during the reign of Travancore king Sree Moolam Thirunal, once the venue for royal banquets, now a public events space surrounded by landscaped gardens overlooking the city.

Did you know? Kanakakunnu Palace once hosted lavish state banquets for the Travancore royal family, today its grounds are used for exactly the opposite kind of public gathering: open-air concerts, dance festivals and public exhibitions.
