The hall may have once been a temple - certainly a lot of gods and goddesses are represented on the columns. Note the triple breasted Meenakshi (pre marriage - one breast fell off when she got married). Now, the hall is dominated by tailors and seamsters, as well as traders of books and brassware. This market had a wonderful hum amongst the tall columns.
