What happens when historical and fictional worlds collide? Sometimes, the result can be a glorious work of art that’s inspirational, insightful and entertaining all at once – like Kalki Krishnamurthy’s Ponniyin Selvan. How did Kalki make even his imaginary characters seem so believable? What marvellous objects and settings from the Chola period can we still see today? Which historical events inspired Kalki to spin his own saga? Join us for an engaging online session as we dive into the stories from south Indian history that formed the foundations of Ponniyin Selvan. 

This online workshop is Free for all Storytrails members.

I really liked the simple way they explained the various artefacts that we wouldn’t have understood without a good guide.

Best Tour!! Once upon a Madurai is in the ‘Top 3’ of my 12 day trip. Swarna was a fantastic story teller, engaging and easy going. You will learn about the ‘heart’ of Madurai.

We did the Storytrails British Blueprints tour with Akila. It was absolutely fantastic! Our tour guide was an inspired storyteller and extremely knowledgeable. Fascinating architecture visits, tour of Fort area, all the major sights in North Chennai.

What a refreshing change from the guides that you hear stating the obvious. Through tales, stories, legends Madurai reveals herself.

If you love stories, history and walking you will love this tour. A wonderful relaxed blend of stories, gossip and history matched to easily walkable locations in Pondicherry White Town.
