As it's near the ocean temperature is always moderate and a little less comparing middle Kerala. 'Thiruvananthapuram' derived its name from Shree Padmanabha Swamy temple which is at the heart of the city, East Fort. This city is also known as Ananthapuri as it is 'City of Anantha'. Most recently, this temple has been in news for the newly found treasure and now it's the richest temple of the world. Vishnu (Padmanabha) stays in reclining position on the top of the serpant 'Anantha' in the Padmanabha Swamy temple and the city name refers to that.
