Known as Southern India's 'City of Festivals and Temples', Madurai was once the capital of the great Pandya kings. It's Tamil Nadu's second-largest city and one of the country's oldest heritage sites, enriched by a cultural legacy passed on from the great Tamil era and dating back over 2,500 years. Above all, it's synonymous with the historic and awesome Meenakshi Temple complex - a superb example of South Indian Dravida architecture, dominated by four great towers (gopurams).
