THAZHATHANGADY, known as the heritage zone, is situated 2 km north-west
of Kottayam. Ancient churches, temples and mosques dot this place, which
has a glorious past hidden behind its modern look. Sree
Venkatachalapathy Tirumala Temple, built in the 19th century, also adds
to the historical charm of the place.Thazhathangady Mosque, one of the
ancient mosques in India, is an important pilgrim center of the Muslims.
The 8th century Persian cross in the Valiyapally with ancient script
inscribed on it is a major attraction. The churches known as Valiyapally
and Cheriya Pally, built in the 16th century, enhances the worth of the
place. Thazhathangady Boat Race is held during Onam, the harvest
festival of Kerala, which falls either in August or September.
