Weird and wonderful India

I visited shortly in Chennai India.
In the city and its suburbs are living approximately 8.9 million people, making it the fourth most populous metropolitan area in India and 31st largest urban area in the world!!
Chennai's economy is industrial based in the automobile, computer, technology, hardware manufacturing and healthcare sectors. E.g. Nokia has production in Chennai and Nokia is still the most popular brand in India (in cell phones). Apples they are eating...
I couldn't find any place where is possible to ride, so I was resting.))
I was staying nice 5 star hotel Hyatt, I definitely can recommend it!
Chennai is having big construction works of transport facilities, they are building everywhere sky-train lanes. It's really needed, traffic jams are massive.

They are using common transport units, it's should avoid traffic jams. All vehicles are fully loaded. Here is normal family vehicle. Kids on the front were even sleeping!!))
Of course when we are in India there are also holy cows!!!
Chennai has one of longest urban beaches in the world. I visited there and it's huge, but not so beautiful. It's in the Bay of Bengal, little bit (500km) north from Sri Lanka. Waves were quite big and I was thinking possibilities to surf. Spot where I visited; there were mostly fisherman boats, local booths etc... Big beach was almost desolated.
Guys asked me to ride, but it's riding what I can't do so well!
Really nice carousel on the beach!)))
Sometimes quite nice long waves, but I didn't see any surfers.

Fishermen were waiting high tide...
Of course because I'm western, driver brought me to check some Catholic hill (almost boring).
I would be more interested to see some Hindu temple or some Hindu erotic arts. ))DD
Hinduism the sex is one way of praying and way to connect humanity to the divinity. Interesting!!
This open eroticism was maybe one reason for Catholic Crusades and  Muslims Jihads to India to clean this kind of promiscuous temples and arts. Well today's results: Hindu 81,4%, Muslims 14% and Christians 2,5%.


Catholic praying park, maybe Hinduism praying park would be more interesting)))
Indian people want to get photographed and straight asking it, when they see camera.
Here some people from Catholic Hill:



From the hill was possible to watch whole Chennai, weather was little bit cloudy, but hot like always in India... or maybe it wasn't so cloudy... maybe it was smog!

Like my topic India is really wonderful and weird place and I would like to go there again!
