Kochi (Cochin) is Kerala's commercial capital, the southernmost city in our India network at 9.9°N. The Thrikkakara Vamanamoorthy temple, where Onam originated, and the Chottanikkara Devi temple are key spiritual centres. Kerala's Panchang traditions are among India's most rigorous, the Malayali almanac (Panchangam) is consulted for everything from weddings to medical procedures. Kochi's sunrise varies by only 22 minutes across the entire year, the least variation of any city in our network.
