Vivekananda House
Chennai
About this place
The marshmallow-pink Vivekananda House is famous not only for its displays of the famous wandering monk, Swami Vivekananda but also for its semicircular form, built-in 1842 to store ice imported from the USA. Vivekananda stayed here briefly in 1897 and preached his ascetic Hindu philosophy to adoring crowds. The displays include a photo exhibition of the swami's life and the room where Vivekananda stayed, now used for meditation. Free weekly one-hour meditation classes may be available.
