Heritage Week !

I came to know that Thirumalai Nayakkar Palace in Madurai is open for a week
upto 24th April 2010 without any Ticket. Yes, admission is free. No Ticket need be purchased; you have to enter your name in the register kept.

I just visited the Palace after renovation ! The colour painting is not yet complete.
And the maintenance is not satisfactory. Whether it is lack of funds?
We do not know.

[May not be much interesting !] But one Photo is Madurai Sri Meenakshi Sundareswarer in the procession after visiting Villapuram, Madurai.
