Taken is Kanchipuram, along with my good friend Chinnasamy Velmurugan.

 

Kanchipuram is located on the Palar River, and known for its temples and silk sarees. There are several big temples, Kamakshi Amman Temple, Varadharaja Perumal Temple, Kumara Kottam, Kachapeshwarar Temple, Kailasanathar Temple and many more.Kanchipuram is also called as "City of 1000 Temples". Kanchipuram is also famous for its silk sarees, which are hand woven. These were some awesome Sandstone carvings, we found at a smaller temple (Kailasanathar Temple).
