A scene from the countryside at the feet backside Yanaimalai, taken at 9:17 morning, the sun already burning hot.

This very religious man cleaning the altar of Naga, the cobra protecting Shiva, told me to put out my shoes as I was already standing on holy ground, I didn't see the marking stones. The villagers still pray to this very old Naga statues for protection.

The new painted more recent Pilaiyar Kovil or small temple was on the right of this scene and in the back you can spot a tiny part of the water tank totally filled with water lilies.

Still 80% of Tamil people are living in a natural environment on the countryside, not influenced by the rush of big cities.
