Ever thought about visiting India but didn’t know where to begin? By starting with Tamil Nadu, you can avoid the crowds of northern India and immerse yourself in ancient Dravidian culture.
The huge temples of Tamil Nadu are justifiably famous. Through history and forty-four original photographs, this book explains how the temples came to be and what their statuary symbolizes. The book also paints a picture of what life was like in the civilizations that built them.
In addition to temples, Tamil Nadu offers beaches and mountain resorts. One section of the book highlights a tiny narrow-gauge train that climbs into the Western Ghats – the dramatic mountains that form the western boundary of Tamil Nadu. A glossary and pronunciation guide helps you to remember and pronounce fifty place names and commonly-used words.
Tamil Nadu The Heart of Dravidian India Adventure Travel Book 6 eBook Victoria Woodard
being a resident of TamilNadu, I was pleasantly surprised at how much I learned about my state after reading Victoria Woodward's book TamilNadu. Its an unusual combination of guide book, a history book and a memoir and its wonderfully researched. It's written in pithy, easy to read style . Victoria has captured the essence of what makes TamilNadu so fascinating - its incredible history and temples. Her descriptions of the sculptures in Mamallapuram alone is worth the price of the book. Her concise write up on the Pallava , Chola and Pandya dynasties provides a magnificent background so necessary to truly appreciate these fabulous temples - in Madurai, Kanchipuram, Chidambaram, Thanjavur, Tiruchirapalli and more cities . What I really like about this book is that after reading this you are certain not to miss anything important to see in TamilNadu and this book equips you to experience these temples in a much more meaningful way. Thank you to the author for such a succinct and well informed book. I highly recommend all visitors to TamilNadu to give this book a read .Product details
