The whole idea started when we the team of history lovers had planned a visit to various temples near Kumbakonam to explore and understand more about History.. What was the sudden urge to explore? That credit goes to the famous Tamil writer Respected & honored Late Kalki Krishnamurthy . Coincidently we all happened to read the famous Book “Ponniyin Selvan” by this renowned author. Also working for some of the renowned IT companies the brains behind the website wanted to do some start up (which is the stimulant of this era). The completion of “Ponniyin Selvan” made us to search for all the places talked about in it, which narrates the story of the Chola King (Rajaraja Chola I) and his kingdom, during the 9th & 10th Century. The book deciphers the story with many temples in TamilNadu and some of them that have lost their glory during the course of the years. So we started off to explore and visit a few of these temples that were once part of the famous Chola Dynasty . The drive from Bangalore to the centre destination Thanjavur(Tanjore) was a cake walk , But as we progressed, we found that many temples were not even known by that name among the localities. The villagers had no clue on the background or the story behind the stone cladded building. Many of them didn’t have any routes, sign boards available and we had put quite lot of efforts to reach the destinations.
