After the grandeur of Brihadeeswara Temple in Thanjavur, our next stop on Day 3 was Kumbakonam — Tamil Nadu’s Temple Town. We had chosen Sarangapani Temple: the largest Vishnu temple complex in Kumbakonam, one of the 108 Divya Desams, and the fifth of the Pancharanga Kshetrams along the Kaveri River. What surprised us most was the inner temple — built in the form of a chariot drawn by horses and elephants, unlike any temple we had seen before. Here is everything you need to know before you visit.
