Kanjipuram (Day 4)
Day 4, we went to Kanchipuram to have a look at their well known occupation, saree making. We learned several interesting facts about the occupation and we were amazed too. It takes a person 15 days to make a saree! They will only make 3 sarees in the same design, 2 sarees for other countries and 1 for their own shop. More than half of the total population of Kanchipuram is involved in doing this occupation. Even though the world is technologically advanced these days, they still do not use machines because they want to uphold the tradition. Children’s above 12 years old work in the morning and go for extra lessons in the night. We also went to a shop to buy saree’s and we noticed that the shopkeepers do not get frustrated; compared to Singapore!

Kollywood Film Studio
The film studio was very creatively designed. It has several components , such as the fake central jail, temple. It also had several special lightings and musics to make the act or the drama look real. When we watch television the movie’s duration is about two to three hours, however it takes a lot of effort and time. The movie is taken shot by shot and so it takes very long…the crew members are very hardworking and focused on the shots even though we were there looking at them at work. I found the experience at the kollywood studio fun and exciting as we got to look at them making the movie, I wish to go there again!

Science Observatory (Birla Planetarium)
Hi everyone, we are from Grp5 .
It’s was like our Singapore science centre. the place was quite serene place. We went inside an omnimax theatre.it was very different compared to singapore’s omnimax. We also watch a 3D movie.for that movie we had to wear a 3D glass. It was quite fragile and we had to return the glasses back to them. The 3D effect was stunning. the graphics made the 3D realistic. some of the girls shouted at one part of the movie. Overall, the place was quite nice.
