If you are passing by palakad town and have half hour with you. You can have a stop here. Otherwise there is nothing here. Some days back entrance is free. Now its by online ticketing through a government website. Inside an temple is situated which is open to locals, whatever its a historical place, maintaining well by authority. Good parking facility available which is paid one.

I recently had the pleasure of visiting Palakkad Fort in the evening, and it proved to be a delightful experience. This historic fort not only offers a glimpse into the past but also provides a serene and airy atmosphere, perfect for a leisurely walk and a breath of fresh air. As I entered the fort, I was immediately struck by its architectural beauty and rich historical significance. The well-preserved fort walls, bastions, and gateways exuded a sense of grandeur and stood as a testament to the region's cultural heritage. It was fascinating to explore the various sections of the fort, each with its own story to tell.

I recently visited the historical fort in Palakkad, and it's another great spot for family and friends to explore. The presence of a temple inside the fort adds to its cultural significance. One of the positive aspects is the ample car parking area and the availability of toilet facilities, making the visit more convenient.The fort also caters to families with children by providing a nearby park. However, one significant downside is the early closing time of 5 pm, even on holidays. This early closure negatively impacts tourism, as many visitors may prefer to explore the fort later in the evening. It would be beneficial if they extended the visiting hours on holidays, perhaps until 7 pm, to better accommodate tourists and enhance the overall experience.

The Palakkad Fort is said to have existed from very ancient times but believed to be constructed in the present form in 1766 A.D, but little is known of its early history. It has historical significance as well as there is a hanuman temple inside the fort. It has a lot of space for walking and many walkers come for their daily walks here.. Many Malayalam movies were shot in this fort and has gained more popularity. There is also ample parking space for cars , 2 wheelers and cycles Definitely a good visit!

A marvelous spot in the center of the town. Entry ticket cost rs 25 for adults. Suggested for a 30 minutes to one hour time span. Fort is almost well maintained, but some area in the backside is filled with creepers and shrubs. Also a temple is situated inside this fort building. Rock pillars and other structures in the fort makes it attractive. Now it is maintained by archeological survey of India. It is just 5 kilometres away from palakkad junction railway station, which costs a rs 13 in local bus ( in 2023). Buses are continuously available from entrance of the railway station itself.

I liked the way that this fort is being maintained. I liked it a lot. The waterway around the first have lots of tortoises and fishes in it which was very nice to watch. This fort made me remind the medieval time period. The one and only thing which make families get irritated here is the public nuisance made by lover over here, which should me kept on control my the archaeological department and police department.

Just in the heart of Palakkad town a sprawling area where Palakkad Fort Situated. The entry is restricted through passes with a price tag of Rs 25/- per person offline and Rs 20/- on line. The fort and adjoining area are well preserved. There's a hanuman temple just at the beginning of the fort. The atmosphere here is serene and pious. Once at the top of the fort, one could see the beautiful surroundings. But the huge guns kept there earlier were removed and it in heard that they were moved to Karnataka. A nice place to visit so that one could spend almost 2 hours in the history of India.

It's a great place to visit. There is a moat with different fishes and tortoises. There is also a Hanuman temple. We have to do a lot of walking and climbing. There are good view points. It's maintained well. It can be more friendly towards the seniors, like providing more ramps.

Palakkad Fort, also known as Tipu's Fort, is a historic fortress located in the town of Palakkad in Kerala, India. The fort has historical significance and is a popular tourist attraction in the region. The fort was constructed by Hyder Ali, the ruler of Mysore, in the 18th century and later expanded by his son, Tipu Sultan. It is a well-preserved structure that reflects the architectural style of that era. The fort is characterized by its massive stone walls, bastions, and a large moat surrounding it, which was once filled with water. Here are some key aspects of Palakkad Fort: 1. Historical Significance: The fort played a crucial role in the history of Kerala as it served as a strategic military base for Hyder Ali and Tipu Sultan. It witnessed many battles and was an essential part of their defense in the region. 2. Architectural Charm: The fort's architecture is a blend of Mysorean and European styles. It features large stone walls, intricately designed doors, and a well-planned layout that includes a mosque and granaries. 3. Museums: Inside the fort, there are two museums, the Palakkad Fort Museum and the District Historical Museum. These museums house a collection of artifacts, weaponry, and historical items that provide insights into the region's history. 4. Scenic Surroundings: The fort is surrounded by lush greenery and gardens, making it a pleasant place for a leisurely stroll and exploration. 5. Accessibility: Palakkad Fort is easily accessible from the town center and is a popular destination for both history enthusiasts and tourists. While the fort is historically significant and provides a glimpse into Kerala's past, it's not as grand or imposing as some other forts in India. Nonetheless, it's worth a visit if you are in Palakkad and interested in history and architecture. The fort's tranquil surroundings and the opportunity to learn about the region's history make it a worthwhile stop for travelers.

A scenic place. Beauty of fort is inviting. Though it could be maintained more. The hugge entry doors 🚪 are fascinating. Though seeing students in corners making out does put you in spot especially when with your kids. There's enough space to keep on moving & exploring 😄... Good views from fort tops... One can feel relaxed. Parking is ample and it's charged. Beside the fort there's a garden. We had to leave unfortunately to reach another place so couldn't explore it. There's a namesake museum inside the fort. Nothing much to explore though. Overall it's a good visit.

Giving you some precious moments that will take you back into the history, the fort and premises are kept intact except for a small portion which is transformed into a Hanuman temple that was not a part of the fort historically. Inside the fort is calm and shady with comforting large trees spreading it's boughs all over the field. A must visit.

This place better to spend their evening time in summer season. Inside there is lot of mango trees that is more beauty increasing the fort. I really enjoy my half day time in fort.

The fort itself, a protected monument of the Archaeological Survey of India information centre museum, the stepped well, the old jail house, the auditorium and the Hanuman Temple inside the fort are all worth visiting. The peaceful atmosphere surrounding the fort, and the greenery around are soothing. A conversation with the members of the 1500 strong fort wlkers' club could be quite enlightening - and you are sure to come across some member or other taking the daily walk, or doing yoga, or other excercises. I watched for a good length of time the many fish in the fort moat, and a number of turtles, and one or two snakes, all adding to the pleasure of the visit. When in or around Palghat make it a point to visit rhe fort and learn a little bit about its various occupiers like Hyder and Tipu armies, the Zamorins soldiers, and of course the Briish

Its an old fort now under the control of Archaeological survey of India . Those who like to know the history of monuments and enjoy its features it's a good choice. And it's a place where you can spent some time with your friends and family. The ticket rate is just Rs 25 per person. You can just roam around and sit in the shades of the trees with friends and family. Parking available . Overall it's a nice place.

It's an old fort situated in the heart of Palakkad town (just 2km ) of Kerala state, southern India. It was recaptured and rebuilt grandly by sultan hydraulic in 1766 ace. And remains one of the best-preserved forts in Kerala. The structure of the fort is fabulous and also this one of the best places to visit with family and friends there is a child park near to the entrance so you can grab two in one. It's historical places while visiting places like this make as more aware of what our ancestors and our old land wereand it's level up our knowledge level

A must visit Historical place in palakkad. Nice ambience and calm place, There is an entry ticket which need to pay by online..Covid vaccine certificate is must for the entry , They are not allowing entry without certificates. There is a parking fee of a 20 for car.. Visited on 12 September 2021

One of the best place in palakkad. Best suited for early morning and evening sunsets. It's a shame , There is no provision to view the first during Full 🌝 Moon nights. Suitable for photography for stone background.

Easily reachable tourist attraction in Palakkad. Parking space ample. Ticket can be taken at the entrance. Just walk around the place and enjoy the view.

Wonderful place to spend your weekend and enjoy the view. A must watch monument. A temple dedicated to Hanuman ji is situated in the fort.

A Silent Place that gives coolness and peace of mind This place will definitely give us a lot of good memories and sights

Palakkad fort is one of the well preserved forts in Kerala. The fort is a symbol of power of the Mysore dynasty in the Kerala region. Few cannons are placed therefore the visitors to see. And the famous myth of a tunnel from palakkad fort to Mysore is still fresh. And some people still visit the fort to discover the lost tunnel.but no such tunnel has been ever been found by any archeology teams.

It's a historical monument under archeology department. Good place for walking, spending evenings. Has no that much sceneries inside the fort. A hanuman temple is there in fort.

The Historical part has been mentioned by other reviewers in their review so I'm just going to mention about how the vist was during pandemic. The normal ticket pass is replaced with an online pass that is to be taken from website given in their notice board. Even without pass we could go and see till the temple inside and beyond that area pass is needed. I went on a weekday evening and still it was a little crowded. Overall a peaceful place that holds a firm Historical background

Nice place to visit. But you have to pay tickets by only online.

I have worst experience with english house.. I strongly recommend english mitra.. It is a good platform to learn english.. All trainers are very friendly.. The main thing that i have noticed in them is their responsibility towards students.They give proper response to their students for every queries.. All the best English mitra.. Keep encourage your students...

Nothing is there apart from Walls, port is built in 17th century, there are big big trees almost 300-400years old trees. Entry ticket is online. There is a God Hanuman temple inside the port that is the only main attraction in this port. Most powerful god.

It's a historical place of Tippu. They have arranged in a good manner. Neat and clean. Clam and quite place to go and also good place to take rest under the trees all the the wind will blow it will refresh our mind.

Visited the fort after a long while and her poise has still not jaded. The beautiful fort and surroundings have such a beautiful vibe. We visited at the golden hour and the scenes were unforgettable. The behaviour of security people was not pleasant, but we could not hold on to those thoughts because of what a visit to the fort can offer.

The place was so good. Really a good place to spend a little time peacefully. The architecture of fort is really nice with a water body outside probably to resist attack in early times. There is a small ramakshetram at the entrance of the fort. The main attraction there is the fort itself nothing much to see in the inside. The entry ticket cost 25 per person. There is garden too near the fort which requires a seperate entry ticket.

Palakkad fort is the one of the oldest port of Tilpu sulthan that used for protection from war.It is a huge wall and around that there is water body so attackers can't easily acess to the wall.The wall is made up of rock that is shaped moreover it's arranged beautifully

Superb place to go on a rainy evening.. with gardens, Jogging tracks around the Fort, its a treat to the eyes.. water surrounds the Fort on all the sides..one of the best places in Palakkad for hanging out with friends, family.. not to be given a miss!

It's an OK fort but very busy with school kids. It's nice to walk and click some photos. Parking is, if you're lucky, available outside the gate else inside its also available. Entrance fee is 25rs and camera also 25rs Be careful: next to the fort and the first ticket window you see is for a kid playground! So be sure to go to the correct window!

The Palakkad Fort, also known as the Tipu Sultan Fort, holds a significant place in the history of Palakkad and the Malabar region in Kerala. This historic fort is a testament to the various rulers who have left their mark on this area. The history of the Palakkad Fort dates back to the 18th century when it was constructed by Hyder Ali, the ruler of the Kingdom of Mysore, in 1766. The fort was strategically positioned to control and safeguard the Palakkad Gap, a crucial passage in the Western Ghats that served as a gateway to the Malabar region. In 1784, after a series of battles, the British East India Company took control of the fort. However, it was later ceded to Tipu Sultan, Hyder Ali's son, in 1790 as part of the Treaty of Seringapatam. Tipu Sultan strengthened and renovated the fort during his rule, and it became known as the Tipu Sultan Fort. The fort's architecture reflects a mix of indigenous and Islamic styles, with thick stone walls and bastions. It features a large granary, a magazine for ammunition, a mosque, and a spacious courtyard. The Anglo-Mysore Wars led to the eventual return of the fort to the British in 1799, following Tipu Sultan's defeat. The British used the fort as a base for their operations in the Malabar region. Today, the Palakkad Fort stands as a historical monument and a reminder of the region's rich past. Visitors can explore its well-preserved architecture and learn about the diverse cultural influences that have shaped Kerala's history. It is a fascinating destination for history enthusiasts and tourists seeking a glimpse into Kerala's historical legacy.

Don't expect too much. It's a Fort for military purposes and doesn't have complex architectural marvels or designs. The view from the fort is excellent. Parking is available

A good place to visit for a stroll in the evening. We get to see a temple inside the fort and a bunch of government offices located within the well maintained garden inside the fort premises

Who don't like historical places to visit. You can see anjenaya temple inside fort. Very powerful temple. If you pray with full heart your every dreams come true. The fort is surrounded with walking track that is very nice place to spend time healthy and a park is near to the fort. Until 6.00 pm only u can visit inside the fort. You can use park till 8 pm.

It's public place quite nice place You can come here any after 5 you can sit and chill with friends Also there's temple inside and you can take part in pooja evening

Land fort is having unique style of bastions. The Palakkad Special Sub Jail is also located within the fort. The Palakkad Fort is said to have existed from very ancient times, but believed to be constructed in present form in 1766 A.D, but little is known of its early history. The local ruler, Paliyath Achchan, was originally a tributary of the Zamorin, but had become independent before the beginning of the eighteenth century. The fort continued to be garrisoned until the middle of 19th century.

A good place to rest in midest of a crowd. Fort was made by tippu the ruler. There is a Hanuman temple too. Definitely will get some freeness while sitting here.

Tippus Fort, Magnificent appearance Tourist attraction. Hanuman temple inside is powerful

It is the iconic structure of Palakkad district, best preserved fortress in Kerala. It was built to this form by Sultan Hyder Ali in 1766 later it was captured and maintained as garrison by the British. This fort is an example of secularism in our country because even if the fort was owned by Hyder Ali for a period of time he never destroyed Human Temple inside the Fort. The fort is 80mts far from the KSRTC Bustand and 1.5km far from the stadium bustand and 5km far from the railway station. Bigbazar and SBI bank os in 200 mts radius .

Very good place to enjoy evening

One of the most well-preserved forts in the state of Kerala, the Palakkad fort was built in the 1766 AD by Hyder Ali and is now a protected monument under the Archaeological Survey of India.This picturesque fort is located in the heart of Palakkad town at the foothills of the Sahyadris range in a labyrinth of dense forests and crisscrossing cascading rivers. The mighty fort is spread over an area of 60,702 square meters and is immensely famous for its architecture, which displays the efficiency of the French craftsman. The magnificent fortress of Pallakad is an essential part of history, and its construction is majestic as wellThe fort is in the shape of a square and is supported by walls and bastions which are square shaped as well. Earlier, the entrance to the fort was via a drawbridge, which has now been replaced by a permanent one in its place. A significant ground is also present within the premises of the fort, which served as stable for the horses and elephants of Tipu Sultan's army in ancient times. It is placed between the fort and the Palakkad Town Hall and is known as the Kota Maidanam. It is currently used as the venue for cricket matches, exhibitions and public gatherings.

It's worth watching and spending weekend time at Palakkad fort as it was a different natural way of presence with cool breeze of air made the visitors felt a different way of blissfulness.

Too hot to visit in afternoon is summer but also...but even after very okay okay place to give it a shot. Just a fort with a garden in the middle of it. That's all.

Nice place to visit. Avoid noon time to visit here. Clean and vintage area. There are two places , both have different tickets, one is park and another Tipu Sultan fort. Park ticket fair is costly.

Good ambiance, center of city. Rs.25/- need to pay for entry,But it's too high for the fort.

Went for a morning walk around the fort. Nice ambiance and greenery attract more people. Seen lack of proper maintenance. Beautification can raise the spot to the best.

Wonderful place to visit. Absolutely stunning expect for the humid weather of Palaghat. The visit was worth.

Historical monument of palakkad. Nice place.

This is a very good place to visit with friends and family. Wonderful and a great fort I have visited. It is well built and very strong . It is a good historical site. Both people in Kerala , tamilnadu people must visit here

Palakkad's main attraction is the Fort. There's a Hanuman temple inside the fort. People can do morning and evening jogging around here. Parking space is vast and big. Parking fee applicable. Good to be with kids, family and friends.

Its a very beautiful place that you can spent some time with your family or with friends.. Parking is not having sufficient lot

An ancient fort. It was told that the fort was built by Tipu Sultan during the expansion of his empire. A Lord Hanuman temple is there inside the fort. Pooja is performed during morning and evening. I attended a pooja in the evening. After the pooja, prasadam (to eat) distribution was there and it was very tasty. The fort is maintained by the Archeological department of india and was maintained very well.

One of the old fort and treasured monument of Palakad, Kerala. Built by Sultan Hyder Ali and later taken over by British now its preserved by the archaeological team. Just visited this fort and the park nearby. They charged Rs.25 per adult who are citizens of India. Most recommended place for artists, person who is passionate about history and for students.

It's good place to hangout near palakkad town Entry fee is 25 rs per person Try visit after 4 pm otherwise carry an umbrella with you, it's so hot there Enough parking space but there is parking fee. 30rs for cars The fort is well maintained and so clean The water canal around the fort have soo many fishes and tortoises Watching them from the bridge is so refreshing

Timing 8am to 5 30 pm to enter inside the fort. Other times you can have a walk or visit the Hanuman Swami temple inside the fort complex. Very peaceful and beautiful place. One of the best fort in Kerala.

Such a calm place. Lot of space to take rest and scenary was also good. Good place to have a calm time with family. Entry fees was ₹25 on 25/6/23. A park was also there with entry fees ₹25. I think it is a spot for teenage couples too.

I went yesterday with my family. I booked the ticket from their site by saving Rs. 5/- in each ticket. Only we need 2-3minutes for taking ticlet online. Really peaceful and silent evening in the fort. And went speechless by viewing the ancient construction methods. I am sharing a loophole which the soldiers used to view from which we can have a 30degree view from a single hole.

Hello everyone, I have visited this place on Friday evening. The entry fee was Rs. 25 per person. Fort was maintained cleaned, here there are some building built in 17's and there is one temple inside the fort. While entering the fort we can see the fort is bordered by water and we can see lot of tortoise 🐢 in it. So this will be a not too entertaining visit, just a casual visit to our history place.

A place to hang out. It is better to visit on evenings . Temperatures are very high on mornings. There is less scope for kids to entertain. Fort has archaeological importance only but has less scope for entertainment . Vast area for walking . Trees are weĺl protected that keeps the inside cool.

One of the historical sites near Palakkad, kerala. Palakkad fort is also known as tippu fort it is situated at the heart of palakkad Nothing Great nor any Tour guides, just took a stroll around. Entry charges Rs a5/ per adult and free entry for children below 15 years of age.

This is a beautiful place to spend evenings. I loved spending time with my mom. The peacocks are also some interesting visitors to this site. I also loved the spring potatoes from the shop near the fort. There's an amazing walkway without any disturbance of the vehicles. It's a good place for doing evening exercises as well.

An old fort in the heart of the Palakkad town. To visit the fort, be there before 5.30pm. If you are planning to visit the fort after that, you get too see the Hanuman temple just inside the gate of the fort and can walk around the fort along the well built walkway enjoying the view from outside. A must visit place if you are in Palakkad

One of the beautiful Fortresses built by Tipu Sultan in the heart of Palakkad town. It's under the management and maintenance of ASI (Archeological Survey of India) now. Entrance to Fort is restricted by tickets and you may go inside until the Hanuman Temple without tickets.

It is near to palakkad town bus stand and Palakkad Town railway station.visit in the evening timing is better. It also have small entry fees. And there is garden also near to fort. Garden have seperate entry fees. Its suitable hangout for family n friends.

Nice place to spend silent and joyful moments.Suitable for all age group people. Mostly for couples or lovers. Good place to get some feel of 300+ year old memories of our people. Inside there is a temple dedicated for hanuman.there is an information centre for this archeological site. Place to visit. Entry ticket is 25 per adult. Kids below 15 years are considered to be free. There is a park adjacent to the fort. Quiet good to spend time there.

It was a nice fort with good history ! But it is being used by teenagers as their daily getaway romance spot ! So basically you get to see a couple at every corner , and they won't feel that your even there , you will be the one feeling curious and suprised !! Ha ha ha try it once , it's a different experience
