Palayam, Thiruvananthapuram : ウィキペディア英語版 | Palayam, Thiruvananthapuram
Palayam or Cantonment, as it is locally known, one of the busiest localities in Thiruvananthapuram (also known as Trivandrum), the capital of Kerala State in India. == History == It gets its name from the fact that it used to be camp of the royal army and cavalry of the erstwhile kings of Travancore. It extended from the Cantonment House in the North up to A.K.G. Centre in the South, including areas now occupied by the University Stadium and Chandrasekharan Nair Stadium. The Army subsequently moved to Pangode. The cavalry, however, remained at Palayam. The name "Cantonment" is not much in use for the area, though that name is still associated with the police station near the Secretariat, "Cantonment Police Station". At present, "Cantonment House" serves as the official residence of the Leader of the Opposition.
