Madurai is an important city in Tamil Nadu, India. It is located on the banks of theb river Vaigai. If have only one day to spend in Madurai, you can cover the destinations like Alagar kovil, Gandhi Memorial Museum, Koodal Azhagar Temple, and Meenakshi Temple.It will take at least 3-4 hr to visit entire Minakshi temple. I will suggest everyone to take a guide especially those who are from North India to understand the history and sculpture of Dravidian architecture. You can find Tamilnadu tourism Guide inside the temple complex.
Apart from Dhanushkodi beach, you can visit other tourist attractions in the area, namely Ramar Patham temple, Dhanushkodi temple, Ariyaman beach, Gulf of Mannar marine national park, and many more.
