Another Chola temple, but I arrived just as it closed at noon, so have no photos. "I was bored with his ruin-collecting activities. The wall-painting represented episodes from the epics and mythology, and all kinds of patterns and motifs, with men, women, and kings and animals, in a curious perspective and proportion of their own, and ancient like the rocks. I had seen hundreds like them and I saw no point in seeing more. I had no taste for them, just as he had no taste for other things." From R. K. Narayan's The Guide.
