I jump out of the car and am immediately engulfed in a wave of honks. Madurai is a place I’d visit.
I gaze at the busy streets full of cars, trucks, buses, scooters, and wandering cows. Madurai has busy streets.I count how many cows there are roaming around the streets. When the ride is over, I have counted more than ten! There are many cows in Madurai. The roads are in complete chaos. The cars, trucks, and buses are impatiently for the light to turn green. The people inside the cars seem to be yelling ” Go!Go!GO!Nagaru! Nagaru!Nagura! The people on scooters expertly weave through the crowd, forming their own small line.
I look out at all the buildings. Madurai has many interesting historical buildings.I survey the balconies from inside the car.Many of the balconies have an unique and intriguing pattern on them. I can see many religious places in Madurai. A temple, church, and mosque co-exist. They are built next to each other and show Madurai’s diversity.
I laugh at a cow and its calf wandering through the road. Madurai is a place I’d visit, because of the busy streets and the historical buildings. I also enjoy visiting Madurai, because my family live there.
Mintgirl, since you are a foodie, you should request to be taken around Madurai to get a taste of the diverse culinary treat, which is native to the city. I have many fond memories of the food there, during my growing up days and I look forward to hearing from you in the upcoming blogs on your Madurai food experience.
I’ll definitely do that. Usually during my Madurai trips, I eat at home
Also, try if you can go to the local flower market and get a smell of the Madurai Malli in the flower stalls (Jasmine flowers). They are very famous across Tamil Nadu.
I agree. I really like the smell of Jasmine flowers.
Madurai is definitely on my list next time I visit Chennai ;))
You’ll love the city!
