Saturday Snapshot: January 6, 2012

Sri Padmanabhaswamy temple in Kerala
Taken by my sister in law in December 2011. See the modern with the traditional. An ATM!! They have a dress code. My brother refused to adhere to that and didn't go in. My sister in Law did go but came back after she saw the crowds. So none of them had a darshan!

Oh my goodness, the detail on the roof is amazing. And I appreciate the new/old contrast - an ATM indeed. I suppose there is some kind of gift shop or something. Nice to have an ATM available. LOL
