Thrissur (Malayalam: തൃശൂര് ), previously known as Trichur, is a city in the Indian state of Kerala. It is the headquarters of the Thrissur District. The city is built around a 65-acre hillock called the Thekkinkadu Maidan which seats the Vadakkumnathan temple. Thrissur is the fourth most populous city in Kerala.
The city is also known as the Cultural Capital of Kerala because of its cultural, spiritual and religious leanings towards history. It houses the Kerala Sangeetha Nadaka Academy, Kerala Lalita Kala Akademi and Kerala Sahitya Academy.
