The Temple Trail - On
a Pilgrim's Journey
India - the land of ancient temples and architectural master - pieces.
A land revered for its fascinating heritage.
Follow the temple trail, as it threads its way through the Kanchipuram-Madurai-Tiruchirapalli-
Kanyakumari circuit, and discover some of the most memorable forms of temple
art and architecture. The Kailasnatha temple at Kanchipuram,
with a four-storeyed tower and octagonal shikhara, is a commendable piece
of creativity. The Meenakshi Sundareswarar temple at Madurai,
and the Rock Fort temple at Tiruchirapalli,
the Kumari Amman temple at Kanyakumari
are just some of the marvels of temple architecture of South India.
East India, too, is replete with impressive temples. A journey through
the temple belt, Bhubaneswar -
Puri - Konark,
reveals a grand tradition of awesome architecture exhibited in places of
worship.
