Yes, Madurai is very pedestrian friendly for visitors. The old streets of the city can be narrow and busy, but they are full of life and color, and a walk is a great way to experience the local culture. Many important sights, such as the famous Meenakshi Amman Temple, are close together, making them easy to reach on foot. However, as in any busy Indian city, pedestrians should be aware of their surroundings when crossing major roads.
