Kochi follows the Malayalam (Kollam era) solar calendar, in which the year begins in the month of Chingam and Vishu marks the solar new year in April.
Well-known temples: Sree Poornathrayeesa Temple, Tripunithura, Ernakulam Shiva Temple, Chottanikkara Bhagavathy Temple (near Kochi).
Onam is the biggest festival, falling on Thiruvonam nakshatra in Chingam, and Vishu is welcomed with the Vishukkani arrangement at dawn.
Rahu Kalam is a period of about 90 minutes each day that Hindu tradition considers unsuitable for starting new work. It is one of eight equal parts of the daytime, and its position depends on the weekday.
They are other daily periods traditionally avoided for new beginnings. Yamaganda and Gulika are also one eighth of the daytime each, and Durmuhurtam is one or two short muhurtas that vary by weekday.
