Tanjore
Tanjore is dominated by the vast granite gopurams of the Brihadeeswarar Temple, a 1,000 year old masterpiece that forms part of the Great Living Chola Temples.
Now a UNESCO World Heritage Monument, these temples hint at the power and wealth of the Chola dynasty, whose patronage of the arts has left a legacy to be explored across Tanjore.
From the bronzes of the Royal Palace Museum to exquisite silk weaving, the arts and crafts of the city showcase a rich and treasured heritage that continues to this day.
