Mosques

Kochi, a major port city on the southwest coast of India, is home to a diverse population including a significant Muslim community. While the city itself has numerous mosques, the current mapped records within a 50 km radius highlight a particularly dense cluster of prayer places in the neighbouring Kottayam district. This area, known for its backwaters and cultural heritage, hosts the majority of the 20 listed mosques, making it a key region for Muslim residents and visitors seeking prayer facilities near Kochi.

The listed prayer places are concentrated in several identifiable areas. In Kottayam city, mosques such as Taj Juma Masjid on Tourist Banglow Road, Makka Masjid on Lal Bahadur Shastri Road, and Masjidu Noor near Pulinakal Boat Jetty Road serve central neighbourhoods. Surrounding sectors like Perumbaikad include Medical College Jumma Masjid and Thouheed Juma Masjid, while Athirampuzha features Mattam Juma Masjid and another Juma Masjid on the Medical College Road. Further out, Chengalam South hosts Da'wa Masjid and Chengalam Jumma Masjid, and Ettumanoor has Juma Masjid, Kaithamala. The historic Thazhathangady Juma Masjid, located in Thazhathangadi, Kottayam, is one of the oldest mosques in the region and appears in the listings.

Beyond Kottayam, the data includes Chempu Jum'a Masjid in Vaikom, about 20 km from Kochi, and several mosques in Thiruvarpu and Illikkal.

The listings are based on available mapped records and may not represent all mosques in the area, but they offer a starting point for locating prayer facilities in these communities.

The listed mosques are spread across a 50 km radius from Kochi, with most located in Kottayam district. Distances range from 20 km (Chempu Jum'a Masjid in Vaikom) to 49 km (Makka Masjid in Kottayam).
