Very divine destination
Temple which requires mundu for males and no jeans and modern dress for females. Great Shiva temple with supporting idols. No mobile, camera allowed inside the temple.

Medieval Shiva temple from the time of the Zamorins
Built during the 14th century (last renovation 1964) this Hindu temple is dedicated to Shiva. It is located close to Mananchira square where the Zamorin palace was located (now a park). The palace did not survive the destruction after the Mysore rulers defeated the Zamorin dynasty, but the temple did. The traditional Kerala architectural style is similar to that of the former palace and Mishkal mosque. More recently the tank in front of the temple has been upgraded and bronze relief panels have been added, depicting the history of the Zamorin clan. I visited in the afternoon when the temple was closed and was aggressively approached by a beggar at the entrance demanding money. Non-Hindus are not allowed inside. There is a strict dresscode for Hindus. I did not feel welcome.

Divine Sriveli Prayer
Tali Sivan temple is divine, enchanting and fantastic experience. You need to wear a dhoti without shirt to enter the temple (for men and boys) For ladies, Indian traditional wear is allowed - chudidhar, saree We visited this temple in the mid morning time and to the surprise there was the daily sriveli prayer happening - when the Lord is taken around the temple amidst drum beats. It was a wonderful experience to follow the priests and the parade Overall a must visit place when in Kozhikode Only Hindus are allowed inside the temple.

An ancient temple from the time of the Zamorins
Very calm , no rush . It's compulsory for ladies to wear traditional sarees/ salwar suit and men need to wear dhotis . Photography is ofcourse not allowed inside the temple , but I took pictures outside. It has a Shiv Linga which is believed to have been consecrated by Parashuram himself in the Dwapar Yug . It now a part of the Thali Heritage Urban Core , and as a result the temple pond has been revamped.
