Did you ever know, We had a university 1000s of years ago in #Trivandrum, Kanthalloor Sala, which was known as the 'Nalanda of South' (Dakshina Nalanda), and considered to be the oldest educational institutions in the country with most number of courses?
We all know today, Trivandrum is the #education and research hub of the state, or perhaps the country. With the most number of educational and research institutions, as well recognitions around it even globally has made Trivandrum, a knowledge hub in the country.
Our vision of redefining the future of learning and future of education, has led us to start a journey to deep dive into this history. We could find some amazing facts about our tradition, just 800m from the Padmanabhaswami temple, inside the city, there existed one of the top universities (Salas) in the world, where people from other countries also came to study, like the Nalanda or Taxila. Over 1,000 years old, Kanthalloor Sala also called the 'Nalanda of the South', is considered to be one of the oldest educational institutions of the country.
Ennittum Kanthalloor is a documentary by Shri. Kishor Kallara, a Government School Teacher, apparently it is one of the first efforts in bringing out these information to public and has inspired us to do our bit to take it further to heights. With this, we hope we could holistically develop a learning platform, connecting the past with future.
