In 2018, when I came to Madurai for the first time, I decided to visit Meenakshi Amman Temple. I took a cab. The Temple is located in the old crowded part of the city. The cab driver was using Google Maps to navigate. When we were just about to reach the temple, he took a left only to find that the street has been made only one way. It was a temporary measure, so Google Maps didn't show that. We were stuck, so I decided to deboard the cab and took a walk to the temple. That instance was one of many instances in which I realize that a map is not a territory. Territories change all the time, but maps don't.
