Thanjavur is completely unique than any of other cities. Thanjavur is special for ancient architecture, culture, tradition, and kingdom even before 2000 years. This city has popular temple of brihadeeswarar temple and it was built depend on gravity, it stands straight in 0 degree. They were great scientists and engineer 2000 years ago. Everyone must visit at least once in their life, It’s really a great place for tourism also.

Our city, Thanjavur, is known for the famous Brihadeeswarar temple, locally known as the big temple. It was built by the Great king Rajaraja cholan. The unique feature of this temple is that the shadow of the temple tower does not fall on the ground. This is one of the favourite spots for archeologists as the temple is full of archeological wonders. Thanjavur is also famous for dancing dolls. The “centre of gravity” concept is the base for preparing “dancing dolls.” The ancient local people of this city have this much immense knowledge about science. This is still unbelievable.
