The tourism potential for Kannur district is high. The St. Angelos Fort in the
Kannur Cantonment, which was constructed in 1505, is a symbol of Portuguese
architecture and attracts plenty of tourists. The Thalassery Fort is an
important tourist centre. Kannur beach and Ezhimala are known for scenic beauty.
Places of historic importance, like the house of Gulldert, who composed the
first Malayalm- English Dictionary and the mosque at Madayi constructed in
1124, using marble brought from Mecca attract many tourists.
