The BIG TEMPLE

I have posted a series of pics of the Brihadiswara Temple in Thanjavur, Tamil Nadu. Next week I will try to put up a few pics that give a closer view of the sculptures. (Check out May 2005 archives of the Airavateswara temple at Darasuram, Kumbakonam, another example of Chola architecture.)

Balaji,
First time here for me. I am very happy I came here. Very nice pictures. Its sad that a lot of our Tamil History has been forgotten or let go.!!

I am always interested in out History, out old temples, Palaces etc. Nice to see all the photos. Actually I am glad there are people like you, who publish such photos in their blogs.

This is a comment for all the photos. I'll be browsing the others above and write my comments
