Gangaikondacholapuram Trip - Mar 5, 2012

I never get tired of visiting the great temples of the Cholas. Built by Rajendra Chola to commemorate his victory over the Palas, this amazing temple is around 1000 years old. Driving to this temple reminds me of the pages of the great novel Ponniyin Selvan. The whole route is flanked by small lakes with lotuses, small temples, cattle and villages.

What a great culture we are, how lucky that we should be born in this nation.
