Kochi, India

Photography Tour in Kochi

The best photos of Kochi aren't at the obvious landmarks. The real magic is in the side streets, the reflected light, the unexpected angles that only reveal themselves to those exploring on foot.

Kochi is Kerala's cosmopolitan port city, where Chinese fishing nets, Dutch colonial buildings, Jewish synagogues, and Portuguese churches line the waterfront of historic Fort Kochi. Walking its eclectic streets is a journey through India's maritime history.

Top Photography Tour Spots

•Chinese Fishing Nets — cantilevered fishing nets introduced by traders from the court of Kublai Khan in the 14th century, still operated by hand at Fort Kochi's shoreline
•St. Francis Church — India's oldest European-built church from 1503, where Vasco da Gama was originally buried before his remains were returned to Portugal
