Brihadeeswara Temple

Hi!

After a long gap I traveled to the most ancient temple in Tamil nadu - The Big Temple. I found this place not only for god spiritual It’s most engineered and proof of human ability.

It makes sense @Dheena , it would probably ruin the structure i no time if people were walking there every day.

Thank you, I will do some reading!
