Tali Temple

Reviewed By EatTravelStay

Tali temple worships Lord Siva, a great peaceful place, known to be powerful god, the temple is busy at times. We visited at around 7:00 PM on a Saturday. Being pooja time, we could get darshan very well, it was a very pleasant and soothing experience. Luckily we got to see the elephant with Golden Nettipattam (Nettipattam is a glittering ornament that adorns the forehead of an elephant) and Thayambaka (Chenda beating by group of performers) and also theyyams (performers dressed like god and dancing to rhythm). We enjoyed a lot. Overall a must visit for believers and tourists.

Sargaalaya is an Arts & Crafts Village established by the Kerala tourism department. It is located just off the main Kozhikode Kannur National Highway in Iringal in a 20 acre area. We visited this village during our recent trip to Kerala while driving from Kozhikode to Kannur. The complete complex is built using laterite rock which gives it a unique look. It has a huge number of stalls selling various ethnic crafts and it also houses the Crafts Design and Technology Development Centre, which provides training for craftsmen to learn new techniques in traditional handicrafts. Some of stalls are very unique and nearly all stalls are outlets for sale of the products on display. The annual International Arts & Crafts Festival is held here from 20th Dec to 05th Jan every year, which attracts artisans from all over the world to register. It is also the biggest handicraft fair of South India. The village is located on the banks of the Moorad River and has recreational boating facilities of rowing and paddle boats. The place is a must visit for anyone driving by.

Kappad Beach

Reviewed By 76sheethals

This is one of the very few beaches in Kerala which is rich in historical significance. This is where the explorer Vasco De Gama anchored his ships in the year 1498. This beach is situated 16 km from Kozhikode, and will involve a beautiful journey through the backwaters of Kozhikode. The waters of Kappad are ideal for swimming. Also at the place can be found an 800 year old temple.
