I had a blast touring the bustling Sowcarpet Market in Chennai with Rajesh. I'm a vlogger so Rajesh had to take extra time to allow me to properly film the shots that I wanted to capture, which he did. He also explained the important facts of the market and the food so that I could get myself situated in this maze of history and food. All in all, an awesome experience. I highly recommend you book this tour!

Went to the Cathedral and joined Tamil congregation for Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. Service was cast to screens as church full. Flashing bright lights at side altars. It was build for the French inhabitants in the past. Toilets outside were poor. They closed early and were in complete darkness. Also went to Our Lady of Angels, a lovely church, bright and welcoming, and has a image of St Teresa of Calcutta outside. Also visited the Temple for a short visit as it was closing its doors for the afternoon.
