YOCee conducts its 10th edition of Photowalk for kids this year.
In the not-so-distant past, Valluvarkottam High Road was called Village Road. For much of its length, it runs along the old village of Nungambakkam. Of that village, there is no trace until you come to a small Shiva temple with a large tank fronting it. Standing there, it is just about possible to imagine Nungambakkam’s rural past.
This Madras Week, YOCee invites children to walk down Village road into the crowded, colourful and pretty ancient Nungambakkam Market and shoot all that is about this ‘village’ in the city.
Major Attractions :
1. Valluvar Kottam
2. Agatheeswarar Temple & the tank
3. Commercial Area’s of Nungambakkam
4. Independence Day Park
