Thanks a lot for your ongoing efforts to present India's treasures here Marathaman!

That's worth an

It'd be great if you could add some additional info on one place or another, if you know anything about it - or if there's something noteworthy about it

View of the ancient city of Tanjore, the political center of the Kaveri delta for millennia. The Brihadeeswarar temple spire can be seen on the horizon.
Many of the old buildings and houses have been demolished and replaced with modern constructions.
