Flights from Madurai to Malaysia

One of the most popular temple towns in India is Madurai. Located in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu, this region once served as the kingdom of the Pandya kings. The Pandyas endowed this town with many historical edifices and temples, which today stand as the main attractions of Madurai. The Meenakshi Amman Temple is the prime attraction of this town. Dedicated to Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati, this temple is one of the best examples of Dravidian style of architecture. The Koodal Alagar Temple, Pazhamudhir Solai, and Tirupparankundram Murugan Temple are other places of religious importance. While travelling in Madurai, tourists must not miss to pay a visit to the Thirumalai Nayak Mahal. Built in 1636, this palace flaunts a stunning fusion of Dravidian and Islamic architectural styles. To get familiar with the interesting history of Indian independence, tourists can step in the Gandhi Museum. An architectural marvel in itself, this museum has a wide selection of artefacts including a bloodstained dhoti of Mahatma Gandhi. Within the premises, the museum houses a store called Khadi Bhavan from where tourists can buy local handloom products. Also, there is a bookstore, where a number of spiritual and natural health related books are on sale. Tourists can book a travel package from MakeMyTrip to explore this holy land without any hassle.

Malaysia, is Asia’s food heaven and cultural melting pot. With home to pristine beaches, lush jungles, reefs and rainforests, fresh highlands, and skyscrapers, Malaysia truly lives up to its slogan ‘Truly Asia’. Malaysia’s supercharged capital, Kuala Lumpur, resembles a crystal garden amongst towering skyscrapers, shopping malls and mono rail tracks. Devote a day to sample Kuala Lumpur’s delicious street food and stalls selling tropical fruits and smoothies; Chinese noodles and Indian dosas to aromatic and spicy Malay curries and seafood. The country really is a crossroads for so many Asian cultures; Muslim Malays, religiously diverse Chinese, Hindu and Muslim Indians live here, along with the indigenous people of Peninsular Malaysia and Borneo. This only proves Malaysia is an ethnically and linguistically diverse jigsaw puzzle. UNESCO World Heritage listed, Melaka and George Town (Penang) have distinctive architectural and cultural townscapes. Spend the day with a traditional tribe or at a tea plantation, strawberry farm, waterfalls in the Cameron Highlands. Trek through the vast national parks of Gunung Mulu and Taman Negara and encounter incredible wildlife, like tigers and elephants. Or head to Borneo and look for wild orangutans, hike through the rainforest, and marvel at the knife-sharp peek of Mount Kinabalu. Then, there are tropical islands such as Langkawi, Tioman and the Perhentian Islands, synonymous with sparkling sands and scuba diving on pristine reefs. Outside of diving, Malaysia is also known for its challenging whitewater rafting conditions; Kuala Kubu Bharu River and Ulu Slim River are two popular options.
