A nicely arranged array of sea shells for sale at India's southern-most tip, at Kanyakumari. Some of the sea shells could well be from banned from trade or endangered species.
Watch this lovely frame of the sea through a hole in the sea shell arrangement of the seller's ocean-side shop!
One can see the Rock Memorial to Vivekananda in the background.
Vivekananda Rock Memorial is a monument and it is a popular tourist attraction in Vavathurai, Kanyakumari, India. The memorial stands on one of two rocks located about 500 meters east off mainland of Vavathurai, India's southernmost tip. It was built in 1970 by the Vivekananda Rock Memorial Committee in honour of the visit of the Hindu spiritual teacher Swami Vivekananda to Shripada Parai during the month of December 1892. It is claimed that he swam to this rock and meditated. It is said that he attained enlightenment on the rock, and henceforth became a reformer and philosopher.
According to legend, it was on this rock that Goddess Kumari performed austerity.
A meditation hall (Dhyana Mandapam) is also attached to the memorial for visitors to meditate. The design of the mandapa incorporates different styles of temple architecture from all over India. It houses a statue of Vivekananda. The merger of three seas - Bay of Bengal, Arabian Sea and Indian Ocean can be seen from these rocks.
The memorial consists of two main structures, the Vivekananda Mandapam and the Shripada Mandapam.
This monument was hit by the Indian Ocean Tsunami of 26 December 2004.
