Ollur

Ollur (Malayalam: ഒല്ലൂര്) is a major suburban area and an old commercial town in the City of Thrissur of Kerala state, South India. It is situated about 5 km away from Swaraj Round on old National Highway 47 (India) towards Ernakulam. From ancient time onwards Ollur was a major business centre in Thrissur district. Now, this geographical area is part of Thrissur Municipal Corporation. It is situated between Kuriachira and Thalore on the national highway. However, a specific identity for this geographical region is still there due to the rural setting of this region and its important religious institutions.
