Afer a nice lunch at Thoodle restrurant along ECR road in chennai, My friends and I went to
DAkshinaChitra museum around 4 pm 29.9.17 which is around a 7 km distance from a hotel.
We took four tickets each cost one twenty rupees. After went inside, my friends found it is
very ineresting [usually they dont show interest in museum].
Houses are built like traditional homes in olden days such as Karnataka, kerala, tamilnadu,
Andrapradesh and telegana styles. We can see the houses waver, potter, farmer etc and also
various houses like chettinad place, Agraharas place, wooden house of Alapuzhas, Muslim house
