Ollur is a major suburban area in the Thrissur City of Kerala state, south India. It is situated about 5km away from Swaraj Round on National Highway 47 towards Ernakulam. Ollur used to be a small town of Thrissur district until recently. Now, this geographical area is part of Thrissur Corporation. It is situated between Kuriachira and Thalore on the national highway. However, a specific identity for this geographical region is still there due to the rural setting of this region and it's important religious institutions.
