Bharath or India as a whole is known as a land of great spirituality. It kept its
holiness and divinity for a long time despite repetitive attacks from
outsiders to subdue its very quality of the great practices.
These varied widely in ways of worship , gods worshipped
, symbols , temple construction methods and rituals. Kings of that
golden era constructed huge magnificent temples that still speak of the
religion that flourished to its fullest. Saints lived
during their age sung sacred hymns in paraise of the gods which
embellishes the residing deities of the temples taking the glory to
great heights. These wonders stand even today , although
in a very neglected and dilapidated state but still providing glimpses
of grandiose of the golden age.
The magnificence of these structures talk of the great architecture of that time and most
importantly , the innate passion of the builders for the dharma that
flourished then .

These great structures can be seen from the north indian himalayan
footsteps all the way to the southern tip of the country. Our interest
for now is confined to the southern most state of India called Tamir
Nadu and especially in Thanjavur district. These are mainly that of
SHIVA and VISHNU , the two main deities of Hindus. Except a few
temples , the other beautiful temples are being left neglected and unnoticed despite their
holyness , sanctity and importance. Many of us aspire to visit them but
unfortunately do not know their whereabouts. The purpose of this website is to provide visitors
with such details.
Visiting these magnificient structures of art will not only earn some revenue
to these
temples which are in the verge of poverty and destruction , but also
help the dependents survive and keep their interests intact.
