Locals welcome the elephants with bananas and rice.
Thrissur is decorated with colourful flowers, plantain leaves, coconut leaves and brass lamps. Every house celebrates Thrissur Pooram by setting up impromptu roadside stalls which sell everything from fresh lime juice to watermelon salads to idlis and doshas. Each elephant is served a platter of bananas, coconut leaves, water melons and coconuts by local residents all along the way to the temple.
