Once the capital of the Pallava dynasty and one of India's seven Hindu holy cities, Kanchipuram is known for its many temples.

Temples

There are dozens of them, built from the 10th to 15th centuries and some still attract hundreds of people to worship each day while others fall gradually into disrepair.
