Where is PAZHAYAARAI?
  • Hi All,

    I have been a member since last three months and have been quiet.
    All your mails were quite interesting. Had been envious about the tours that u guys conduct. BTW, I am a fan of Kalki and particularly his famous works Ponniyin Selvan and Sivagamiyin Sabadham.

    I wanted to know the whereabouts of the places that are mentioned in these novels. do they really exist now in our CURRENT TAMILNADU??

    Where is "PAZHAYAARAI" of ponniyinselvan now in tamilnadu? The great capital of Cholas before thanjai was created.
  • Hi,

    Can Sriraman sir, tell us about the excavations that have been done at Pazhyarai? or Patteswaram? Looks like its another unexplored spot. So could be Uraiyur?
  • an excavation in uraiyur?

    you must be joking nanda

    if you are overweight you cant even find a place to stand in uraiyur.


    even the main panchavarneshwara temple has been so illeagaly
    encroached on, that 9 out of ten times-I miss the temple entrance .
    but the temple is a sight to watch. lots of kalvettu from later
    cholas. remember uraiyur was capital of early cholas.

Howdy, Stranger!
