While in Thirupudaimaruthur Bird Sanctuary, I got to tour a famous temple there. The temple itself seems sparse, with alcoves alotted to the various gods. But, once I went up the stairs (the temple looks like a step pyramid from the outside), I saw beautiful artwork and wood carvings. But I think pictures will speak volumes more than my pitiful commentary.
All of the carvings were done of wood.
Some beautiful paintings detailing the stories of the gods:
Here I am with my birdwatcher friend, burning my feet on the hot temple roof.
