Kanchipuram

Kanchipuram is about a 3 hour drive away from Chennai. It is know for some of the oldest temples in the state and silk making.

There were several interesting things to look at on the way.

Burning trash.




 This is an amusement park that I thought was interesting because the building has this huge crack in it. It's a surprise it doesn't just break off.
 Catching a ride on a very high stack of produce.


 This is a mango tree that people put stuff on to represent love. On the ground they stack rocks which are supposed to bring you good fortune for having a baby. 



The best part of this temple was being blessed by an elephant. You give him a coin and he gives you a little smack on the head. Pretty cool.
