An ASI protected Monument in Kanchipuram (1) – Surakeswarar Temple

 Surakeswarar-Temple-Gopuram-Kanchipuram-India-1

Surakeswarar Temple in Kanchipuram, Tamil Nadu, India is an ASI (Archaeological Survey of India) protected monument. Generally, very old monuments and monuments of national importance are identified and protected by the ASI, Government of India. This Temple is located in the road that is opposite to the famous Ekambareeswarar Temple in Kanchipuram. It’s been recently renovated and maintained quite neatly.

Kanchipuram has a handful of such protected monuments about which I will be writing as I keep visiting them. Since I don’t have much information about this temple, enjoy looking at the photos I clicked there 🙂

    The temple looks neat and clean. The gopuram is quite good.

    Keep posting about Kancheepuram temples. I had visited Ekambareshwarar temple, long back. That is all. Thank you.
