in Pinmapple3 years ago

Hello Hivers!

How is my HIVE family doing?
Hope you guys are in pink of your health. Today I will br giving a sneak peak of my South tour. I visited one of the third largest city of India, Coimbatore. Coimbatore is a city in South Indian state of Tamil Nadu. This city is known as the Manchester of South India. It is famous for its famous textiles and its amazing places to visit. One more thing that is best here is the Saree(Women's Indian Attire) shops. Some Saree designs that are famous here are the Kanchivaram, Benaras that sold at the Cross cut road. The jewellery here is really numerous and beautiful. The perks of visiting Coimbatore is that it is way too affordable. The breakfast here is mouthwatering and delicious. Some famous dishes that I tried were the Rasam Puttu and Lemon Rice. Trust me everything here is so affordable and good from the food to the transport and the living accommodation. Coimbatore is also known as Kovai.

There are many beautiful and breathtaking places in Coimbatore and one them that I visited was The Adiyogi Shiva Staue. This Staue is around about 34 metre tall (112ft) and 45 metre long (147ft) and 25 metre wide (83ft). This is Staue is madevof steel with Thirunamam at Coimbatore Tamil Nadu. And can you guys believe this statue is recognised as the Largest Best Sculpture by the Guinness World Records. This Staue weighs about 500 tonnes (490 long tonnes and 550 short tonnes). Designed by Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev The Adiyogi Shiva Staue is one of the most popular destination of Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu.

Adiyogi refers to "The First Yogi". This Staue was made to inspire people towards the well-being of Yoga. Being a yoga enthusiast I understand the importance of Yoga in our daily lives. Declared as the largest bust it is one of the biggest tourist attractions. This Staue is beyond amazing and is located on a very peaceful location. As it is a very important and religious place for Indians in order to go near the Staue people have to walk barefoot on the stairs and climb the stairs neer the statue. Being one of the most peaceful places of all the time this place is really picturesque and beautiful.
