There is a certain medieval charm associated with the Mattancherry Palace, Kochi that lends this place its mystical charm.

The architecture of the palace is highly influenced by the Portuguese style of architecture. You will find two arches at the entrance of the palace, which lead to the palace compound.

The palace has two stories, which is built around a central courtyard. This style is known as "nalukettu". The palace has round-headed windows and doors and the typical sloping tiled roof, thus giving it a European look.

The palace looks beautiful from inside. The interiors are beautifully made up and one can find huge paintings and murals on the walls inside the palace. There are two temples inside the palace, which are dedicated to Lord Krishna and Lord Shiva. The palace has exhibits of royal headdresses, weapons, furniture, royal robes, palanquins and other lifestyle materials used by the royal family. The paintings depict scenes from the epics like Ramayana and Mahabharata and the sacred Puranas. These paintings are very old and most of them date back to the 16th Century. The paintings are massive and spread over a total area of almost 1000 sq. ft.
