Mahabalipuram is in Tamil Nadu, India. It is just 1hr away from Chennai. The nearest airport is in Chennai. In 2004 it was hit by the tsunami. The tsunami has taken 8000 lives. The tsunami hit the shores so hard that it has unearthed a few priceless relics in the ancient port city. The good and the bad need to exist to balance out this world......Oh the food here is so good that gaining up to 5kg post trip is kinda normal.....
