In this segment, host Sowjanya takes us behind the history and importance of one of South India's iconic tourist sites - Meenakshi Amman Temple, Madurai. 

The Meenakshi Temple, located in Madurai, Tamil Nadu, is a magnificent and revered Hindu temple dedicated to the goddess Meenakshi (Parvati) and her consort, Lord Sundareswarar (Shiva). With its grand architecture and intricate carvings, the temple is a stunning example of Dravidian-style craftsmanship. The temple complex spans an area of 14 acres and features towering gopurams (gateways), colourful sculptures, and elaborate halls. It is renowned for its Thousand Pillar Hall, which showcases intricate stone pillars. The temple attracts millions of devotees and visitors each year, who come to seek blessings, witness religious ceremonies, and immerse themselves in the spiritual aura of this ancient and sacred place.
