Historty of Rock Fort Temple in Trichy

It is only the presence of the age old architecture that makes us understand the greatness of history! My quest for the historical manifestations was once again slaked when I found out about the iconic Rock-fort Temple of Trichy. Positioned on the top of a 273 feet high rock, the Tiruchipalli Rock Fort is a huge complex constituting a huge fort and two main temples. The construction of the complex was started by the Pallavas but it was the Nayaks of Madurai who led to the completion of the temples.
The Tiruchipalli Fort has been deemed as one of the oldest architectures in the world considering the history of this place which dates back to almost 3 billion years ago. The temple complex comprises of two temples dedicated to Lord Shiva and Lord Ganesha. A big climb of 473 steps is needed to reach the temple complex. As history speaks, it took 300 men a course of eleven years to carve out the huge rock. The fort was also used in the Carnatic wars which led to the establishment of the British Empire in the Southern Part of India.
Climbing up to the top of the fort lets you witness a spellbinding view of the town. A visit to this ancient temple will definitely leave you in awe of the historical background of India.
