Madurai - 2 days Plan | Tourist Place, Meenakshi Temple, Food, Saree & Jewelry Shopping | Tamil Nadu

[@MganeshaShepherd-cz2ht]

Hello friends I was born and raised in bengaluru but I love madurai the Athens of the East, one of the oldest city in India. City of great history and heritage, I love the culture of madurai people. It's an emerging city of India. I love jigarthanda, idli, dosa, parotta, jasmine flower, patron Godess of madurai city mother meenaksi. Madurai is a paradise of food lovers. Educational and health care hub of south tamil nadu. Climate is also quite good. I love the astonishing and mesmerising architecture of the temple. People are very hospitable and amiable. Lots of love from karnataka bengaluru

What the guy was telling you was perfect and getting the bus to pondicherry direct from madurai will only be available during night with advance booking but, the whole day one could get the bus to Villupuram as because all the buses running to Chennai must go through Villupuram only around 160 km before Chennai and from Villupuram every 5 minutes for almost 24 hours you could get the bus to pondicherry which about 40 km east of Villupuram The old man gave you the right information only💐

[@riscnx]

Madurai as beautiful as it sounds, it's a terrible city. Overcrowded, sewage and water supply issues, garbage dump in every corner, public transport is of my grandpa's era. And it's hurts to see Sri Meenakshi Temple, surrounded by Gaza (happened in last 40years).

[@rockjn]

​@@riscnxyou are right, I'm from coimbatore, recently visited madurai, they are not maintaining cleanliness. Sad to see such a big historical temple under bad hands.

[@NoNonsense_01]

​@@riscnx What do you mean by Gaza? It is disheartening to learn that this great temple is being mismanaged! Perhaps, ASI ought to take it under their wing.

[@riscnx]

@@NoNonsense_01 It means a ugly concrete jungle with narrow roads that look like noodles on map... with very large number of peacefuls living in it.

You made me nostalgic by showing this. Near the mandir there is one of the famous shops named Hajimoosa. We purchased a lot of sarees from that. 😊😊👌🏼👌🏼👍🏼👍🏼 Thank you for the video.

[@COMSivaprakashS]

Wonderful video , Hope u noticed ,devi minakshi is to be worshipped first here ,though it is a temple mainly dedicated to lord shiva ,all pujas and honours are first done to minakshi devi , She is the queen of madurai, she has mastery over all 64 arts , she has two samprathaya ,one is Sri Vidya Lalitha devi and another one is Raja matangi , Her statue is made out of emerald stone , This is the temple where lord shiva played 64 divinely games , Every day she is worshipped in eight swarupam (8 para shakthi's form) which are considered to be secret can't be revealed publicly , This is the city where devi born and brought up as the princess , and faught with deva devas ,and won them, at last she married to lord Shiva who came to madurai in his soundara Rupam ,then they both ruled madurai and gave birth to lord Muruga who ruled madurai later , Alot and lot of secrets and histories are there for devi and temple ,one such is no one is allowed to see the abhisegam (bathing) done to devi since she is the queen of the city , Madurai itself is the Sri chakra , And lot more and more secrets and stories are behind the temple history ,no words are enough to describe , Whatever I described is even less than a fraction of percentage , And this madurai minakshi temple is one among the 3 devi temples in tamilnadu (other two are kanchi kamakshi ,tiruvanaika akiladeswari) ,ward off all our sins and dhosam within a moment we get the dharshan of devi❤️ Hope everyone visit devi and get her blessings
