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
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:
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
