Impressive stone carvings on this temple at Kanchipuram, close to Chennai (Madras).

Hi Austin,

These are the modern cement mouldings on the main south east gopuram of the Kamatchi Amman Temple (Kamatchi is the Enamoured one, full of love for Lord Shiva). It seems the picture was taken inside the temple 12°50'26.00"N and 79°42'11.87"E.

You could check with this picture of the same gopuram from jayachandran to find the right location: http://static.panoramio.com/photos/original/1456066.jpg

Greetings from India
