Historical place

This palace is a museum, you can see the old stuffs used by maharaja of Kerala. This palace is situated near to Sree Padmanabha Swami temple. There’s fees for entering in to the palace. And once we entered there’s guide he’ll give us all the details of stuffs. There is also photo gallery of old Maharajas. it’s good place to visit with family and friends. The only problem is they won’t allow us to take photos inside the palace. As they won’t allow us to take photos I don’t have any photo of inside. Everyone should visit there !!

A very beautiful place to spend a whole day. Take time visit the temple, walk slowly. Visit the palace and then the painting museum. Just be there. It is a very nice atmosphere.

Kuthiramalika (lit. Mansion of horses) is a palace built by Swathi Thirunal Rama Varma on the south-eastern side of Padmanabhaswamy temple, Thiruvananthapuram. This palace was built in the 1840s. The construction of the palace was completed by 5000 Vishwabrahmins in four years. The palace gets its name from the 122 horses that are carved into the wooden wall brackets that support the southern roof.

Build in 1840 time.very historic place in Kerala each person should watch it because if we have not seen the wonders of our own country its a big mistake in each one life. Not able to purchase from here because its too pricy and brands available.

Divine place. Ancient Indian historical Temple. Must visit. Wearing LUNGI or DHOTI compulsory. Men wears Dhoti in bottom and towel on top. Ladies wears Sari 🥻 or Dhoti on any other clothes like western wear, kurtas or Panjabi suits.

Awsome place ...place to see the historical items....

Very Good Palace / Museum..

Palace and the museum was fabulous,a great place to understand the history of the royal family of travancore

Must see place atleast once ! Unforgettable

Superb temple...very good experience you will feel....I think the widest gopuram this temple has....

Most beautiful wood work carvings. Even the roof is also carved using Rose wood. Kings Rajsinhaan made up of using Ivory is some thing unique. Plenty of wood is used for this palace . Must visit.

The Travancore "temple museum" is a beautiful building rich in extraordinary carvings and fine carpentry. (Better name is wooden palace)

This is a Historical palace. There are so meny precious historical things are maintained very carefully. We took 2 tickets from there. One for art gallery and another for palace visit . We take 2:30 hrs to complete the total visit . Peaceful place. Visit with friends and family.

Nothing special to visit

The palace is built by Swathi Thirunal. You can see horse shapes in the palace so that it got its name -kuthiramalika meaning horse palace. Placed near city centre. Don't miss to visit if you have one hour to be spent in Trivandrum.
