St. John's Cathedral, Tiruvalla, Syro-Malankara Catholic cathedral in Tiruvalla, India.

The cathedral features traditional Kerala architectural elements with brick construction, temple-like exterior structure and expansive interior space for 2000 people.

Built in 1932 as a chapel, the current structure replaced three previous buildings and received consecration in September 2004 under architect Laurie Baker's design.

Biblical narratives depicted in stained glass windows illustrate key themes including God seeking humanity, humans seeking God, and people seeking each other.

Located 2 kilometers from Thiruvalla railway station and 119 kilometers from Cochin International Airport, with multiple accommodation options within walking distance.

The cathedral incorporates elements from Kerala temple architecture while maintaining Eastern Christian traditions, creating a distinctive Indo-Syrian architectural style.
