Brihadisvara Temple Gangaikonda Cholapuram is a Hindu temple dedicated to Shiva located in Gangaikonda Cholapuram, Jayankondam, Tamil Nadu, India. It is one of the largest South Indian temple, built by Rajendra Chola I, completed in 1035 AD. This temple is similar in design and has a similar name, as the older 11th century Brihadeeswarar temple in Thanjavur. The Gangaikonda Cholapuram temple is smaller yet more refined than the Thanjavur temple. This fact led me to a confusion and I initially named this video as as Brihadisvara temple in Thanjavur, thanks to corrections pointed out in the comments section basis which I have updated the title and description, but unfortunately I cannot edit the text in the video. This video gives a short aerial glimpse showcasing the beautiful architecture of this temple. #thearthlings #brihadeeshwara
