Tamil Nadu is beautiful and people lovely. Ate idli, dosa, rice meals for 19 days and loved the food. Stomach was ok all through. Water is clean and hygiene levels at roadside and big rest high.
 
Eating in banana leaves is clean and eco-friendly. Rest of India should emulate.
 
My Pranams to all those who made and maintain the wonderful temples of tamil nadu.
 
Love and Light
sanjeev nayyar
