Madurai
is one of the oldest cities of southern India. It has been a centre of
pilgrimage, for centuries. The Meenakshi temple, the main architectural
attraction here, is an excellent example of Dravidian architecture, with
gopurams or multi pillared halls, covered from top to bottom, in a profusion
of multicoloured images of gods, goddesses, animals and mythical figures.
However, besides the temple, our tour includes a walk along the main street
leading to the temple. The well-organized confusion caused by pilgrims in
traditional clothes, pavement shops of all shades, holy men in robes of
different colours etc add an unmistakable colour and atmosphere to this
fascinating Temple City.  |
