Kanyakumari - The southern tip of India

Everyone knows it is the southern tip of India. We happened to go to Nagercoil for our friend's wedding and made it to Kanyakumari which is very close by. The boundaries are the Indian Ocean and the Arabian Sea. Kanyakumari was referred to as the Cape Commorin by the British.

Vivekananda rock is where they say, Swami Vivekananda spen his time meditating. Ferry is the only way by which we can go to the Vivekananda rock. The few minutes journey in the ferry is bit scary because the wave strength, even though it seems that the sea is divided by The Rock, is quite high. But it was a great experience. The place is very peaceful and windy. Looking at the waves hitting the shore is a revel, out of the World experience. Especially watching the pattern of how the wave hits and the water moves off the rocks back into the sea.
A black stone statue of Thiruvalluvar, famous for his philosophical work Tirukkural, is built at a bit of distance from the Vivekananda Rock. Again, we have to take the ferry from The Rock to the Thiruvalluvar memorial.
The solar calendar is scientifically depicted on the rocks and the shadow change as per can be observed.
It is a very peaceful place to be. I wished we had stayed there for long.
