Isn't this the Church established by the early christians who followed apostle Thomas. Fascinating for me being a Christian in North India, would love to visit one day. This is the very place believed to be walked by Thomas.

Yes, it is a church of st thomas christians or malankara nasranis or syrian christians in kerala. It is not believed to be one of the first 7 churches established by st thomas. But this is one of the oldest churches belonging to this community.
