Synagogue in Kochi (Cochin)



The synagogue in Jewtown in Cochin, Kerala. I believe its the oldest one in India.
They are very strict about the attire of the people who enter, I was dressed okay (in a skirt), but my husband's shorts were deemed too short (!) and we couldn't go in. It's a beautiful exterior though.

I have traveled all around Fort Kochi, and Mattancheri but never took a shot of the Synagogue. Thanks for sharing this one.
And nice shot too :)

Thank you :)
I guess there are some advantages to not being on the backwaters.

The inevitable picture of the fishing nets will follow.
