This is a view of the Madurai skyline from the Taj Garden Retreat. A big group of us on the program and a couple other friends came here for Ron's 20th birthday. The Taj breakfast consisting of two eggs, a bowl cornflakes, (unlimited) toast, fruit juice, and tea is a western favorite I'm sure, but runs a steep 200 Rs. (rupees, that is). Sure, that's only four US dollars, but that's octuple the price for a regular Indian breakfast! I mean, c'mon, if not octuple, than at least sextuple. You can see the gopurams of the Meenakshi Temple and Yanaimalai (Mount Elephant) very clearly from here. |
