Tragically, entire town was destroyed during the 1964 cyclone and the buildings were left in ruins, not rebuilt.

It was beautiful blue sky and the gurdwara (temple) was glistening in the Sun, at the middle of the holy pool (sarovar). As like any gurdwara, they welcome everyone here without asking about one’s identity.

It was outskirts of the town filled with dwellings of working class people but it occured to someone there to have a statue for one of the greatest modern tamil poet, Mahakavi Bharati, however modest and haphazardly done with the cement, it was still a wonderful sight.

Managed to click with a shutter speed good enough to bring the motion blur of the passing train.

It remains a mystery how this is shaped and found along the slope but well stable.

It was an exhilarating view from top of the hills; I also imagined how one would see the hills from the moving train.
