Post card from Madurai ( Tamil Nadu) 1981






Sri Menasha Temple in Madurai
 


The journey to Madurai was through Bangalore which is a modern city, the most Westernised and liberal, we stopped there for shopping.
Madurai is famous for Sri Menasha Temple, built with multi coloured images of gods and goddess, animals and mythical figures. It is a city bustling with life, packed with pilgrims, beggars, business people and bullock carts and rickshaw-wallahs looking for punters. It is one of the oldest Southern city for learning and pilgrimage.
