Kanyakumari (Cape Comorin) - the land's end of India

Kanyakumari is the 'Land's End' of the Indian subcontinent, where the Bay of Bengal meets the Indian Ocean and the Arabian Sea. It is the place to experience simultaneous sunset and moonrise over the ocean.

Kanyakumari has great spiritual significance for Hindus, and is dedicated to the goddess Devi Kanya, an incarnation of Parvati. Pilgrims come here to visit the temple. Kanyakumari is worth a visit 2 days/1 night.

In this video I have filmed Kanyakumari and the temple on my arrival day. Next morning we got up at 5 o'clock to watch the sunrise while the moon was still in the sky. It was very special.

Here again! I was in Kanyakumari just after Madurai. I spent two days/two nights there. Before leaving I visited Manakudy, the place that was struck by tsounami in 2004. It's amazing to see how many people crowd its streets. I was there on Saturday visiting the two rocks. Never seen so many people around myself, but I would say that they were all disciplined and orderly. No problem at all. Up with the colorful, happy and friendly Indian crowds!
