Exploring Mahabalipuram Chennai - SOUTH INDIA TRAVEL

Download Native Travellers Music here: nativetravelle...
We continue our Chennai travel adventures in this vlog. Following on from our previous Chennai video which you can find here: • Couchsurfing in Chenna...
We returned to our lovely Couchsurfing hosts in Chennai and this time explored the ancient city of Mahabalipuram. Mamallapuram, or Mahabalipuram, is a town on a strip of land between the Bay of Bengal and the Great Salt Lake, in the south Indian state of Tamil Nadu. It’s known for its temples and monuments built by the Pallava dynasty in the 7th and 8th centuries. The seafront Shore Temple comprises 3 ornate granite shrines. Krishna’s Butter Ball is a massive boulder balanced on a small hill near the Ganesha Ratha stone temple. During this India Travel video, we discover the delicious south Indian breakfast dish, Idli...MMM Yum! We enjoyed our return visit to Chennai and exploring the stunning ancient city of Mahabalipuram. At the end of our Chennai travel journey, we were sad to say goodbye to our hosts and to beautiful Chennai, but the next adventures need to begin!
Kia Ora, we are so happy you are here!
