Calicut, a quintessential port with a glorious cultur-
al inheritance and widely known for its hospitality, has
a treasure trove of unrevealed historical tales yet to be
shared with the world. The city, known for its social life,
boasts of many lively active public spaces like Mananchira
Maidan, S.M. Street, Sarovaram Bio Park, Calicut Beach
and cultural venues like Tagore Hall and Town Hall. But
even as a city with a rich history, it had, for a long time,
lacked built spaces which evoked any sense of history,
leaving tourists and travellers to reconstruct the mediae-
val splendour of the place by themselves.
