My hotel room in Sivakasi 

The mountains and my ancestors 

The mountains and my ancestors



These mountains had existed
When my ancestors had lived
They had roamed their risky ridges
Their tall silhouettes scurrying for cover
When dark silences echoed in the hollows
A silky sky touched the mountaintop
While fluffy cotton clouds had cast
Diaphanous shadows on their flanks
In the unblinking moments of my eyes
They saw my foolish childhood
in knickers, asking silly questions
These were the very questions
That were asked by my ancestors
Who wore foolish togas and thought
They mastered the mountains end to end.

The banks of the Pampa river. There is a tiny tea-shop here where you can sit and watch the pictureque scenery. This place is called "the lonely Planet" because it was shot as apart of the footage on Hampi by the Lonely Planet team 

The shops of the Vijayanagar empire of the 15 th century which can be seen as part of the ruins
