Beautiful facility, directly at Port de la Cruz Saul. Unfortunately, strong storms and late February drought caused serious damage. Plant lovers' paradise. Some plants have audio QR. Audio instructions are also available in German. Many seats to choose from.

The heart of Tamil Nadu is in Chennai, the soul is definitely in Maduray, and the temple of Minakhi is the soul of the soul. The temple of Minak is so beautiful, it seems to be a different Indian world that is full of things.

The Brihadeeswara Temple, a true marvel of ancient architecture, left me utterly mesmerized during my visit. The moment I entered the temple complex, I was captivated by the sheer grandeur of its towering vimana, a testament to the artistic and engineering prowess of the Chola dynasty. The intricate carvings adorning every inch of the temple's walls transported me to a bygone era, where stories from Hindu mythology and daily life came alive in stone.The temple's main vimana, carved from a single piece of granite, stood as a towering symbol of devotion and craftsmanship. The precision with which the stones were cut and assembled, without the use of mortar, was awe-inspiring. As I walked around the temple, I couldn't help but admire the attention to detail in the frescoes that adorned the walls, each scene telling a story that resonated with the spirituality of the place.The serenity of the temple's inner sanctum provided a peaceful sanctuary for prayer and reflection. The play of sunlight through the intricately designed corridors created a unique ambience that was both calming and spiritual. Exploring the temple's various halls, each with its own distinct purpose and architectural style, gave me a deeper appreciation for the vision and planning that went into its creation.My visit to the Brihadeeswara Temple was not just a touristic experience, but a journey back in time that connected me with the rich heritage and cultural legacy of India. The temple stands not only as an architectural masterpiece but as a living testament to the devotion and craftsmanship of the people who built it. This is a place that will forever remain etched in my memory, and I highly recommend it to anyone seeking to witness the grandeur of India's ancient past.

In 2017, in front of the ancient temple of the Golden Temple, it rained ☔, the grandfather of the toy store wiped the chair clean, let me sit and rest, saw many parents with children buying toys, a few little boys next to the temple playing wrestling, they saw me and then came up to shake hands and chat, very polite, Watching them wrestle for half an hour, turning around to leave, and after walking a hundred meters, a little boy ran over and stuffed a sugar in my hand and ran away shyly. People there are so friendly, even if you are a stranger, you will be infected with happiness

Mamallapuram, also known as Seven Pagodas or Mahabalipuram, is a town in Chengalpattu district in the southeastern Indian state of Tamil Nadu.[1] It is on the coastline 58 kilometres (36 mi) south of the city of Chennai. An ancient historic town and a bustling seaport in the 1st millennium CE, now a beachside tourism center with a group of Hindu monuments declared as UNESCO world heritage site, it is one of the most visited towns in South India.[1][3] Mamallapuram was one of two major port cities by the 7th century within the Pallava kingdom. Along with economic prosperity, it became a center of a group of battle monuments carved out of rock. These are dated to the 7th and 8th centuries: rathas (temples in the form of chariots), mandapas (cave sanctuaries), giant open-air rock reliefs such as the famous Descent of the Ganges, and the Shore Temple dedicated to Shiva, Durga, Vishnu, Krishna and others.[1][3] The contemporary town plan was established by the British Raj in 1827.Neolithic burial urn, cairn circles and jars with burials dating to the 1st century BC have been discovered near Mamallapuram. The Sangam age poem Perumpāṇāṟṟuppaṭai relates the rule of King Thondaiman Ilam Thiraiyar at Kanchipuram of the Tondai Nadu port Nirppeyyaru which scholars identify with the present-day Mamallapuram. Chinese coins and Roman coins of Theodosius I in the 4th century CE have been found at Mamallapuram revealing the port as an active hub of global trade in the late classical period. Two Pallava coins bearing legends read as Srihari and Srinidhi have been found at Mamallapuram. The Pallava kings ruled Mamallapuram from Kanchipuram; the capital of the Pallava dynasty from the 3rd century to 9th century CE, and used the port to launch trade and diplomatic missions to Sri Lanka and Southeast Asia.Mamallapuram Shore Temple View from beachAn 8th-century Tamil text written by Thirumangai Alvar described this place as Sea Mountain ‘where the ships rode at anchor bent to the

This is the Isha Yoga Center of the enlightened master Saguru, Dhyanalinga is the 7 chakras complete energy body that Saguru has opened for conversion. Just inside can be purified. There are 8 and 21 days of pure classical Hata yoga classes every year. It is close to free for Chinese. It is worth the experience, you don't have to worry about any problems. There are many volunteers here to provide you with services. You can make an appointment to see what courses are available before you come. It is best to see a happy, compassionate living enlightened master in the center of Saguru's day.

It is also free. Compared with the Gandhi Mausoleum, I recommend the crossroads and the Gandhi Memorial Hall diagonally opposite. I also don't charge tickets, and I don't need security checks. There are many collections, correspondence, Gandhi wore at the time, and even the blood cloak he wore at the time of his assassination, which is worth a good look.
