Jump to:

Tanjore is best known for its 1,000-year-old Brihadeeswara Temple built by King Rajaraja I and dedicated to the god Shiva.

Now a World Heritage Site, its gopurams tower above your approach through its manicured gardens. The architectural achievement is impressive with an 80-tonne granite block capping the 60-metre high inner temple.

The Nayak Palace

The Nayak Palace, although rather dishevelled, is also worth investigating for its superb Chola bronze collection and elaborately decorated Durbar Hall.
