Geocache Description:


Little India is the meeting point of the local Indian community. It's a hubbub of activity by both day and night, with people eating, shopping, worshipping, or just hanging out with family and friends. For visitors, it's an unparalleled chance to experience first-hand one of the oldest and most colorful cultures in the world. 

This batch of geocaches will guide you to some of the highlights of this fascinating town-within-a-town. 

Elephants are an important divine symbol in both Hinduism and Buddhism, representing dignity, calm, wisdom, and power. They are also considered to bring good fortune. All this is captured through the importance of Ganesha in the pantheon of Hindu gods, who is revered as the remover of the obstacles (and the one who places impediments in the path of the unworthy), the deva of intellect, and the god of beginnings. 

At GZ, you'll be able to admire a number of these magnificent creatures for yourself. Not real elephants -- that would be asking too much -- but perhaps almost as delightful in their own way.

The cache is a small container with room for geocoins and small trackables. Please BYOP and be discreet about retrieval and replacement.
