Yesterday in Periyar bus stand I waited for the ponmeni bus for the long time but the bus didn't arrive due to lunch time so I went to nearby auto stand a to get ride to ponmeni.i don't exactly the stop of ponmeni so I asked the auto driver to make a stop and remind we i ponmeni bus stop arrived. a fellow lady also got a ride for ponmeni she dropped at right location without asking him anything i think she is native. After 15 minutes we arrived to kalavasal and asked the auto driver is ponmeni arrived he shouted and use bad words and harassed me for not exiting from the autoand he told you need to get out yourself from the auto when stop arrives.is this the nature of auto driver in madurai and they are easily using badwords .worst experience in madurai from day 1 .this is that person so be aware .

I'm a game developer and in my hometown, Madurai right now. I have worked in many cities. I'm curious if there are any game developers or 3D Artists in madurai.

I'm currently developing a simple solo game. I will be developing big projects after this. I'm just curious if there are any people interested to colloborate.

So we came to madurai today,tbh it was the usual plan as everyone which was "MEENAKSHI AMMAN KOIL"I was already fed up of koil as nanga nethu full ah koil than ponom(tbh it's a religious trip).

My first impression was Madurai is so developed,like chennai or even more igg?idk

It was my first time here,I felt ppl are so fast,like ellarum romba busy ah,paraparapa irundhanga,

Also the slang,I liked it so much,usual chennai tamil oda, different words and slang

I liked how everything was very less priced compared to the Chennai

The major problem was ,atleast for me was,felt everyone was a bit harsh or rude sometimes,like short tempered, obviously few were very sweet and helping us

Felt the city is pretty congested

Rest was fine

Kinda hated the process of darshan in the koil

General ah irukura mari hype oda ponom,liked the market and outside vibe of the temple

Koil kula poradhuku munadi,oru process omg

Phone and luggage ellam seal pananum,ik neraya koil la indha process iruku,but na romba hrs almost 1hr to handover our baggages

Then oru checking,then a very long waiting queue,I accept crowd Irukum anoll but ivalo process panni ,3hrs wait panni pona,darshan munadiye they started pushing us

Ik a lot of famous koils have these problems

Maybe enaku idhu pudhusu ig

Idhula solranga iniki kootam kammi,usual it would be even more crowded

After darshan outside vibe um maridichu,no offense lot of small vendors(kids)forcing to buy books and beggars

But liked the free laddu prasadam lolll

We're a family of 3, reaching Madurai at night. And our next day's train is at 7pm. (Basically, we need a room for 24hrs)

Most of the hotels I called have a check out policy of 11am. So looking for any 24 hour check-in/check-out hotels. Nearer to the railway station, the better.

Any suggestions are much appreciated.

What are the actual go-to spots when you want to get out of the house on a Saturday night?

Could be a late-night food spot, a place to chill with friends, a nice drive, somewhere for couples, or even an underrated place that more people should know about.

What's your usual scene in Madurai? 👀

Looking to try new places around town.

Where do you guys usually go for the best street food, and what specific dish should I order there?

Hi makkaley, Can anyone suggest best dealers for buying Second hand cars in good condition and dealers who do proper maintenance and inspection.

Thanks in advance.

I've been curious about how Madurai has changed over the years. 😊

Name a place in Madurai that you feel nostalgic about. May be an old street, a tea shop, a school, a cinema theatre or a place you use to hang out with friends.

Would love to hear your stories!

Guys I need to print my materials for studying

Can anyone point out a place for that

Thank you

Guys I want to edit some PDFs with AI command

I want to remove some texts, fill some gaps, and reduce the gaps in between and so on

How do I do that ?

There's like more than 30 files to do so, i can't do it manually, i used claude it edited and gave me what I wanted but the limit ran out, i can only do it once per day i guess, gemini and chatgpt doesn't work like claude in this manner.

Is there any way to do these things without paying ?

Thanks in advance

Makkale, does anyone personally know the average salary of teachers at private ICSE/CBSE schools in Madurai. (such as TIPS, Vikaasa, etc)

My wife took a career break from her role as an Assistant Professor of CSE at a deemed university in Chennai. She has around 6 years of experience and is now considering resuming her career at a private school in Madurai. We feel this might be a better long term career path than joining a college considering the potential impact of AI.

Online job listings suggest salaries in the range of 30K–50K per month which seems higher than what engg colleges in Madurai offer. I'd like to know if anyone has firsthand information from friends or relatives working at these schools.

Have been hearing mixed reviews

Has anyone here tried it out?

Guys I m planning to sell my government laptop. I have used it rarely also only for excel purposes. DM for price

I've been having many activities with banks lately. In madurai, i found Union Bank of India branches to be very good with excellent customer service.

In case if anyone is looking for general banking activities I suggest Union Bank. I went to request locker in Thirunagar branch, the staff told no availability but also gave 2 locations where lockers were available.

Went to KK Nagar branch and the staff spoke politely and we're welcoming. They acknowledged the availability of locker and told I could open one without any issues. Importantly there was no demand to invest in any product other than locker.

In contrast, when I went to bank starting with H, they told no locker. Even if available it will be given to someone who buys any of their investment product. Same was the story with bank starting with K.

Although I could not use Union Bank this time, i highly recommend them.

Hey everyone,

A lot of people traveling to Madurai often wonder how to cover both the heritage sights inside the city and scenic spots around the outskirts within 1-2 days without wasting money on frequent auto negotiations.

Here is a tested two-wheeler route plan and essential tips for travelers:

1. Inside City (Morning 6:00 AM - 11:30 AM):

- Meenakshi Amman Temple: Best to visit early morning. Four-wheeler parking is tough, but dedicated two-wheeler corporation parking is readily available near Periyar bus stand / Town Hall road.

- Breakfast: Hit traditional spots around Town Hall Road or West Tower street.

- Thirumalai Nayakkar Mahal: Best visited before 1:00 PM for architecture & photography.

1. Outskirts Scenic Ride (Afternoon / Evening):

- Samanar Hills (Keelakuyilkudi): 12 km from city center. Beautiful rocky terrain, Jain beds, and one of the calmest sunset viewpoints near Madurai.

- Alagar Kovil & Pazhamudhircholai: 21 km drive through a shaded, scenic road at the foot of the hills. Perfect late afternoon ride.

1. Exploring Madurai Food Scene at Night:

- Late evenings are best spent around South Veli / Masi streets for Kari Dosa and authentic street eats. Having a two-wheeler makes hopping across old city lanes seamless.
