Frank Lloyd Wright, a famous American Architect wrote "Architecture is that great living creative spirit which from generation to generation, from age to age, proceeds, persists, creates, according to the nature of man, and his circumstances as they change. That is really architecture. As one of the oldest civilisations in existence, our nation proudly flaunts its wonderful temples and historic monuments. It is matter of great pride that our country houses architectural marvels from centuries ago. Basically temples can be considered as a contact between man and God. The msot wonderful part is that the rituals and ceremonies performed carried in the temples can be scientifically related to the temple architecture. Its amazing that even centuries ago our architecture was so much developed. Temples built thousands of year ago have a design based on sacred geometric diagrams (Mandala) -- symbolized as a miniscule image of the universe with its coordinated organized structure Tamil Nadu is well known for its magnificient temples and is populary known as 'land of temples' for its grand temples that are architectural masterpieces.
