G.D. Naidu, a well-known South Indian philanthropist and businessman, founded this site. He was so interested in vehicle technology and mechanics that he stripped a Rolls Royce 20 to educate students on how many bolts were used and what sort of engine was utilised. Following his death, his son G.D. Gopal continued his father's work while also keeping the current automobiles running. This establishment's only purpose was to excite and teach students about the craftsmanship and engineering marvels of 18th century cars. This location has vintage and one-of-a-kind automobiles from America, the United Kingdom, Germany, Japan, and India, among others.

A true Kulfi. This "Marina Nagaraj Kulfi" is well-known for how he prepares and serves it. It comprises cashews, badam, dried fruit (1 piece each), and a tile of dairy milk, which is then covered with chocolate syrup and served as many times as you desire. And it's always served in a thonnai with a hand tissue with a kind smile. It's entirely homemade, and both the flavour and the quality of the milk are really rich and delicious. It's a deal for $35 SHOW IN RUPEES

This temple, which is a vital element of the multitude of Historic temples in Trichy, has its origins in the narrative of King Vibhishana and Lord Ganesha. (The story is shown in the Reel.) It is one of three temples in the fort complex and was erected by Mahendra Pallavan in the 6th century BC, according to epigraphical evidence.

Team Postcards From TamilNadu wishes you a very happy Pongal!💫🌾
Pongal is a harvest festival observed largely in Tamil Nadu, India's southernmost state, to honour the Sun God, Mother Nature, and farm animals. The event lasts four days at the start of the Thai/Tai month. Pongal is derived from the Tamil literary phrase 'Pongu,' which means 'to boil over.'
This day, also known as Surya Pongal, is considered the festival's primary day. On this day, the Sun God is worshipped and milk and jaggery are served. Kolams are ornamental floor patterns that are drawn at the entryway of every dwelling. Freshly harvested rice is cooked with milk at an auspicious moment. As the milk boils freely over the saucepan, the children and grownups joyfully chant "Pongalo Pongal." Following the Sun God's offering, the Pongal and other delicacies are served.

Toda Embroidery Toda needlework, also known as Pukhoor (meaning "flower") by locals, is a kind of art done solely by the women of the Toda tribe in Nilgiris, Tamil Nadu. The needlework looks to be woven fabric with a beautiful quality, but it is really composed of red and black threads on a white cloth backdrop. These embroidered shawls and cloaks are worn by both men and women. Poothkuli is the name of the shawl. This embroidery can also be seen on a variety of apparel items. Toda embroidery patterns are based on thread counts, as opposed to current embroidery patterns, which are based on patterns and designs. Another quality that distinguishes this needlework is that its reverse side is also equally beautiful, with no apparent knots or dangling threads, making both sides of the embroidered fabric usable. Toda embroidery was granted GI (Geographical Indication) status in September 2013. Colors Used Specific materials and colours are used in Toda embroidery. The fabric is a loosely woven cotton textile. The cloth is often cream or off-white in tone. Red and black woollen threads are used. They are bound by these colours because of their cultural beliefs: white denotes purity and innocence, red represents youth and adolescence, and BLACK represents adulthood. Motifs Used The majority of their inspiration comes from their daily lives. Nature and anything in their surroundings, such as plants and wildlife, inspire them. The buffalo horn is a prominent motif, and buffalos are holy to the Toda people. Other typical motifs are the Sun, Moon, Stars, flowers, mountains, and so on.
