Rejseplan
Chennai-vandringen ligger i Mylapore, et gammelt sted med skriftlige optegnelser, der går tilbage til det 1. århundrede e.Kr. Det er et land med mange guder! Vi begynder vandreturen i Chennai ved Kapaaleswar Temple, det mest berømte tempel i Mylapore. Templet er Mylapores epicenter, og vores guide vil afmystificere alle de fantastiske ritualer, der sker i templet!
Næste i vores Chennai-vandring besøger vi klosteret og det universelle tempel Ramakrishna, en af Indiens største filosoffer. Vores kulturevangelist vil forklare sit bidrag til indisk filosofi, sin tro på harmoni mellem religioner. Hans stjernearbejde med at fungere som en bro mellem den antikke og moderne verden.
Vasupujya Swami-templet er et Shwetambara Jain-tempel og har en imponerende arkitektur. Templet er dedikeret til Lord Mahavira og de andre 24 Tirtankaras (åndelige lærere). Templet har en tryllebindende atmosfære og bidrager til Mylapores religiøse mangfoldighed.
Vandreturen i Chennai bringer os til hovedkirken i det romersk-katolske ærkebispedømme Madras & Mylapore. Det er en fascinerende oplevelse inde i den neogotiske basilika. Helligdommen bevarer en lille knogle og lansen, der gennemborede Saint Thomas i år 52, og det er faktisk højdepunktet på denne Chennai-vandring.

Experience was great. Solo tour! Admission fee was 2500 I believe. The length of the tour was about 3 hours. The atmosphere was warm and busy but not too hot, very pleasant. Best for sight of temples and churches in Mylapore. Jainath was my tour guide. He was fantastic and full of information.
Kannan was a Very knowledgeable guide. Very informative tour.
Very informative tour, Kannan did a great job education us in a very relevant and relatable way
I had a wonderful experience with Hareesh. I was a little anxious heading into the tour as a female solo traveler after learning no one else had signed up to join my group tour date but I felt at complete ease with Hareesh who was incredibly friendly and warm. His English was very easy to understand and he was incredibly knowledgeable about the areas of Mylapore that we explored. I would highly recommend this tour to any visitor to Chennai looking to grow more familiar with faith traditions in Chennai (both Hindu and Christian) in an organic way. I left excited to dive deeper into many of the people and events we discussed and incredibly satisfied with my experience. I would recommend this tour without reservation!
Had the best few hours exploring Mylapore with Ganesh. He was extremely knowledgeable, efficient, and always made sure I felt comfortable or safe! Would 100% recommend for anyone, and can vouch as a solo traveller it was great. Thanks again Ganesh (the God of good luck!)
I had an amazing experience on this tour. I learned a lot about the history of Chennai and how temples of multiple religions have play a major role in the city, from biblical times through today. My guide, Kannan was excellent. He was he extremely knowledgeable, giving me detailed explanations and important context at each stop. He was also very friendly and attentative, making sure I was enjoying my tour, getting good photos, and was doing ok in the extreme May heat. I definitely recommend 5 Senses as a tour provider, and highly recommend my guide, Kannan.
