Tourist Places In Tirur
   A small town in Kerala and one of its most significant business centres, Tirur, is located in the Malappuram district of Kerala. Added to its importance is its historical significance due to the fact that it was Tirur which was a part of the first railway line in Kerala. Tour to Tirur takes the visitor in and around Tirur where there are a number of places of historical significance. What makes Tirur a unique destination in Kerala, is the religious harmony in which people from different creeds stay. 
      


Tuncan Parambu

The birthplace of Thunjathu Ramanujan Ezhuthachan, the father of Malayalam language. The famous "Thunjan Utsavam" is held here every year in the first week of February. During this festival many literary luminaries, singers and classical dancers gather here. Thunjan Paramba is located in Annara, 1.5 km away from Tirur railway station. A memorial for the great poet has been built at Thunjan Paramba, where a week long literary mela is organised in the last week of December. This place is sacred for all who speak Malayalam.
    Thunjan Paramba is a hallowed ground where hundreds of children are introduced into the world of writing, soon after infancy, when they first trace the letters of the Malayalam alphabets in sand taken from that revered spot which was Ezhuthachan's home. People in thousands reach Thunjan Paramba with their children, to initiate them into the world of letters on the Vijayadasami day. Children are made to write on the white sands of Thunjan Paramba with their fingers. Also young poets of Kerala come on that day to offer their first poem.

Thunchaththu Ezhuthachan Malayalam University
     
   Chief Minister Oommen Chandy will inaugurate the Thunchathu Ramanujan Malayalam University at Tirur Thunchanparambu on November 1, 2012. There will be nine schools. MA courses in Malayalam language, literature, comparative literature, translation, theatre, visual arts and traditional architecture studies, culture, media and knowledge heritage will begin in the months of June and July.


Wagon Tragedy
    
   The Wagon Tragedy was the death of a large number of prisoners on 10 November 1921 in the Malabar region of Kerala state of India. The prisoners had been taken into custody following unrest known as Moplah rebellion in Malabar, and their deaths through apparent negligence discredited the British Raj and generated sympathy for the Indian independence movement.
     Inspired by Mahatma Gandhi and the national leaders of India, there was a widespread and peaceful uprising against the British colonial rule of India. After a series of events that culminated in violent clashes between police and protesters, Martial law was introduced and the rebellion mostly crushed. The British packed 70 prisoners into a railway goods wagon at Tirur railway station to be sent to the Coimbatore jails. By the time they reached their destination 61 of the prisoners had died from suffocation. A monument to this notorious tragedy can be now seen in Tirur.


Mamankam Festival [Thirunavaya] 
   
   The land of ancient Mamankam, Thirunavaya is 7 km south of Tirur. Situated on the banks of Bharathapuzha River, it is a place of historical importance.

       The place has three temples, dedicated to the Trimurtis, the gods of creation, sustenance and annihilation of life, according to the Hindu belief strewn on the banks of the Bharathapuzha. The famous vedic Vidyalaya Othanmar Madom of ancient times, is on the bank of Bharathapuzha, near the Siva Temple. This madom was a centre of Aryanisation through Sanskrit and Vedic education, as Thirunavaya was believed to be the main centre, where Parasurama brought and settled Brahmins.
