       The Thrissur Pooram is a spectacular thirty-hour ceremony that begins at 7.30am on the Pooram day (Friday the 30th April 2004) and pulls its closing curtain at 1.30pm on the next day. Elephant processions are taken out from the major and minor temples of the town and suburbs. They arrive on the fringe of the circular road (Swaraj Round) and gracefully move to the Vadakkunathan temple. After paying homage to Vadakkunathan (Lord Shiva), the presiding deity of the town, they march out to their earlier positions.
