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.

Ganesh our guide is well spoken and pleasant. We went through the tour at a leisurely pace with a few moments of contemplation at the religious sites in between. Really made me feel knee deep into the religious culture of Chennai. The booking through the operator is also seemless and easy.
Easy to book. Mr Jainath is an excellent guide. We learn a lot from him. He brought us along with patience as we were severely jet lagged. The coffee break was excellent and much needed to wake us up. We saw Hindu temple, Jain temple, a catholic basilica and a Ramakrisna temple. Chennai is full of history and culture. Be prepared to be bare feet so sandal/flip flop is handy. 5 stars!!
Fun, informative short tour with the great guide Kannan. A lot of information and tailored to our needs. A cup of coffee at the end.
It was a very informative tour with a great tour guide.
The guide was very nice and he tried to Show us everything. We learned a lot about the culture. Would definetly recommend.
It was a really nice tour and we learned a lot about the Hindu religion :) We went to four different places and had authentic Indian coffee
Kannan was the best tour guide! Excitingly told, and along the way, you also got to know the place through a local. We had a lot of fun
Very nice tour of the wonderful places of religion dotting the Chennai landscape. Guide Hareesh was excellent!
I had a wonderful time with my fun and knowledgeable guide, Satish. From the moment we met at the meet up point he was warm and friendly and very considerate, even making sure we stood in the shade while he told me epic stories and fun facts. He knew all the best photo spots and helped me with temple etiquette with grace and clear explanations. The tour is comprehensive and diverse and includes special touches I wasn’t expecting. I would even do the exact same tour again, it was so great. Just book it! You’ll love it.
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.
