Did you knew this?

MARBLE does not get hot in sun.

day before yesterday i visited Akshardham ( a temple of Swaminarayan sect) here at Gandhinagar. It was noon, about 1:00 Pm. The main temple has stair case of some kind of red stone. but the front area (about 20 metres long) is made of white marble.
To my surprise it was not hot at all despite direct sunrays falling on it. and red stone was blistering hot. i stood bare footed on marble for several minutes but there were no signs of my feets getting burnt.

that's why people get marble floors in house. now i understand. and so do you, if you have read this far.
