Kochi
The princely state of Kochi had come under the influence of various empires. The Portuguese, around 1530 A.D. build it into a prosperous town and build the 'Manuel Kotta'(Fort Emmanuel).When overpowered by the Dutch, Fort Williams was built. Hyder Ali and Tipu Sultan the great rulers of Mysore also left their mark here. But finally in 1814, the whole nation came under the British rule and Kochi's magnificent monuments and forts had to face the wrath of the British hegemony. Under the supervision of Sir Robert Bristow, Kochi was developed into a major harbor and Willingdon Island was created. Apart from many commercial establishments the island accommodates the Cochin Port, Naval Airport and the headquarters of the Southern Naval Command.
