Weekend Trip - Pics

Here are some of the photos from our weekend trip to Tanjore. Credits to Prabhakar for clicking these. Click on the pic to enlarge them.

1.Thanjavur Brahadiswarar temple

The pic below deserves a tamil description 'பொன்னொளியில் மின்னும் பொன்னியின் செல்வன் கட்டிய இராஜராஜீசுவரம்'



Southern Side of the temple- By Photostitching the individual pics. I'm currently trying to stitch the photos of other temples also. Will update them once completed.

The stitched photo was superb. The caption for the first one was just apt.
