Cultural Scene in Thiruvananthapuram, Capital of God's Own Country

Trivandrum has a vibrant and eclectic cultural scene. This is an attempt to showcase through photographs some of the events to give a flavour to the common man - not the cognoscenti. I will also post some curious views of Trivandrum which may even be a 'culture shock'! You will find that recently, I have been adding some snippets from the city not necessarily related to culture but give a holistic view of the life in this city.

Temple Festivals 3

The very next day, on the highway between Pallipuram and kaniyapuram, we came across yet another temple procession.
This procession had people dressed up in Theyyam constume. Theyyam is a practice in the Malabar region and it is rarely seen in the Travancore area. Perhaps, the coverage in the media has given rise to demands on the costume makers.
