Explore Kochi’s spice market, Mattancherry Palace, Jew Town, and Paradesi Synagogue on a small-group heritage walk.

“A fascinating look through the Jew Town neighborhood of Kochi. I really appreciated going to a few places that I never would have known about, like a dilapidated former synagogue that deserves to be restored someday. The Paradesi Synagogue is beautiful and the museum offers a helpful Judaism 101 in addition to displaying the antique ritual objects. I would have loved to hear more about the history and the unique customs of the Jewish community in Kochi, or to speak with people who are personally connected to the former Jewish community.”
