This temple built by Rajaraja Chola II in the 12th century is dedicated to Shiva. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, with the Brihadeeswara Temple of Thanjavur and the Gangaikondacholisvaram. This magnificent complex of Dravidian architecture is relatively well preserved. The complex has a theertham (sacred basin) connected to the Cauvery River. A small museum is located to the right of the entrance, with beautiful sculptures and some mural paintings from the Chola period.

Des sculptures très fines ornent le bâtiment. Certaines ont encore des traces des peintures originales alors que d'autres sont toujours vénérées.
