If you are in India you can have plenty of antiques. After wandering the whole India for antiques, you will find the heaven at Mattanchery, a little town full of antique shops. Mattanchery is 12 km from Kochi city in Kerala.

Some antique shops are displaying more items than in a government museum. It is not a joke!. Go to Inidan museum in Kolkatta - the India's largest museum - then visit Mattanchery to feel the difference.

World's largest warp (bronze vessel) is made and displayed in Crafts antique shop at Mattanchery.

Enjoy the visit cum shopping. Beware of touts too.
