With the growth of the economy and society, this location has elevated itself to the top of Kerala's hotspots. People have a strong sense of style, and western culture strongly impacts how individuals wear.

History of Cochin

Centuries ago, Cochin was a business centre for merchants, including Arabs, British, Portuguese, Dutch, and Chinese.

These tourists travelled to this lovely city to acquire the plentiful cardamom, clove, and black pepper. These economic operations profoundly influenced the expansion and evolution of this little city. The entry point to Kerala was hence the name given to it.

Due to its quick industrialisation, this city tempted Portuguese, English, and Dutch companies to establish bases there. 'Manuel Kotta' or Fort Emmanuel was a fort constructed during the Portuguese era (1530 A.D.).

By 1663, the Dutch had defeated the Portuguese after arriving later in 1653. Tipu Sultan and other Mysore monarchs like Ali Haider had beaten the Dutch, but sadly, they had little luck with the British. Eventually, in 1814, the Dutch and the British negotiated the Anglo-Dutch Treaty, in which Cochin was exchanged for the Indonesian island of Bangka.

It created the Travancore-Cochin state in 1949 after gaining independence from the British in 1947. Kerala was created in 1956 by joining Cochin, Malabar, and Travancore. It established the Corporation of Cochin in 1967 following a comprehensive study by the commission and ratification by the Kerala Legislative Assembly.

Cochin's historical and cultural attractions are one of the most unique and worthwhile places to visit, Fort Kochi in Ernakulam. This fishing village became the first European township in India history.
