Hotel Sangam

At Thanjavur, where the Brihadeeshwara temple can be completely overwhelming even to the seasoned traveller, a visitor can only ask for comfort and pampering, something Sangam does admirably. Every room-comfortable and well-equipped presence dominates the city and beckons every new entrant to the town. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the complex was built more than 10 centuries ago, and has to be explored at leisure to be fully experienced. Of special importance is the 13 tiered central tower, the massive sanctum carved out of a single block of granite, the monollithic Nandi and the Shivaganga fort that surrounds the temple, as well as the remains of the palace and museum. History buffs will be thoroughly satisfied.
