Krishnapuram Palace

Situated in Kayamkulam, approximately 47 km from Alappuzha, the Krishnapuram Palace is a remarkable structure that serves as both a palace and museum. Constructed during the reign of Anizham Thirunal Marthanda Varma, a king of Travancore, this palace is renowned for its exquisite mural paintings and architectural beauty. Built in the traditional Kerala style, the palace features a distinctive gabled roof, narrow corridors, and dormer windows, and is conveniently located near the Krishnaswamy Temple.

One of the major highlights of the palace is the colossal mural painting known as 'Gajendra Moksha,' which covers an impressive area of 53 square feet and holds significant historical value. Additionally, visitors can also view the Kayamkulam Vaal, a unique double-edged sword, within the palace's premises. The Krishnapuram Palace stands as a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Kerala and offers an immersive experience into the region's art and history.
