A Spiritual Experience

My family and I went on a trip to Madurai this summer. We went to my cousin’s house and stayed there. We were in Madurai for 6 days. We went to the famous Madurai Meenakshi Temple which is one of the most popular, ancient and the most historical temples in the world. Situated in South Masi Street, it was built as early as the 7th century BC. The version which we see today is the result of various restorations done over a period of 400 years from 1600 – 2000 BC. We visited many other temples in Madurai, but, none of them as famous as this one.
This temple is part of India’s cultural and spiritual heritage and we must try and preserve it.
