It's true, certain things bind you to a particular place. Can you tell me, what's the specialty of your present town/city that you love most? :P
I love Thrissur for Thrissur pooram and the three temples which conduct the pooram

West Bengal is famous for Tarakeshwar, Tara Pith, Daksheneshwar Temple, Kali Ghat Temple, Bokresgwar Temple, etc. It is land of goddess Kali and lord shiva temples.
What binds me at Agra is long association with friends and people here and parental house. My younger brother and nephews are also in the same house or at nearby places. I have also my professional office here only. This is what binds.

Not West Bengal as a whole...but your residential location
I love my home very much.I spend my childhood in my home which is in Kolkata and the atmosphere and the members of my family bound me to stay over there.
I have been living at my place since birth so I have many memories associated. The feeling of belonging to the place is what connects me to my residence.
I also have been living at my place since birth though I have seen lots of changes at my place and now at present its like a commercial place most of the people who used to live here have shifted to some other places but then too I have some special attachment with this place.Whenever we think of changing place someone from my brothers or father deny and start making comparisons with the present place and the place we see for future living. :)

I am sorry to note that you are staying in Thrissur due to your love for poor people of Thrissur served by temples. I am sure you are doing your best to help them with all the money at your disposal. I am living in my current place because there are not many poor people around and that saves us from many troubles. :laugh:
Actually for work purpose I am living in city... but I am too attached with my hometown so every week regularly visiting my place. HE he..

I spend my whole kiddo time and school time here.. So its like emotionally attachment. Well, there is nothing more famous kind of here but still I just love it.
For me its also the work but apart from that safety exposure and opportunities and many other things... Home place is indeed the best but we cannot have averything
I love my home town very much.I am born in Howrah and just stick to that place where all my family members and friends and my relatives stay there.

am staying here due to frequent transfers....nothing else :P

But the thing, I like most is Vadakkumnatha Temple and its round........I think, we have to travel more than 1.5 kms to completely revolve the temple...I mean the public roads.....the road is one way......the whole land where pooram is held, belongs to Cochin Devaswam :silly: . How many acres, in the heart of the main town......
Same is the Kodungallur devi temple also, the place where I resided earlier. Roads (oneway) completely revolve the temple.....more than 1 km.

for both these temples, there are 4 paths in 4 directions through which we can enter the temple.......South, North, East and West..and parts belonging to those directions of both the temples are called.....Vadakke(North) Nada, Thekke(South) Nada, Kizhakke (East) Nada and Padinjaare(West) nada. Nada means 'the front' of a temple or home.
And there are numerous roads leading to these 4 Nadas.......The whole round of both these temples are filled with shops....thus the business area. Kodungallur is a small town belong to Thrissur Corporation
Pulling this thread up to get more points...
Let me tell you the peculiarity of my previous residential place Kodungallur. It's in Thrissur-Ernakulam border......but Thrissur district. I stayed there for 2.5 years.
When I was preparing a Christmas article, I just searched google to know where St.Thomas landed in Kerala, as I know well Christianity came to India through Kerala.
Earlier itself, I know Islam came first to India through Kodungallur and first mosque of India -Cheraman mosque is still there. I think around 500 AD. When I searched Indian Wikipedia, I was surprised to find that not only Islam, but Christianity and Jewish also came to India through Kodungallur.
This small town is known as the gateway of 3 foreign/popular religions to our country - Islam, Christianity and Judaism.
Jewish have now moved to Kochi and they have separate colony there. They are prominent in business and restaurants now at Kochi.
When I asked my Christian neighbour about this matter, she gave me more details and said that St.Thomas resided in Thrissur itself, a nearby place.
So, it's not surprising that 1/2th of every Malayai is either a Christian or Muslim.
Ratio of Hinduism:Islam:Christian:Others in our state is in the ratio, approximately.....49Hindus:25 Christians:25 Muslims:1 other..... a Complete state of communal harmony
I love my hometown as all my relatives are here and this is a clean town has no to many hazards like other city.
I live in andhra pradesh in visakhapatnam district. I bind to this residence because there is sea. and visakhapatnam is bit peaceful city compared to other metro cities.
