Architecture which is still living in India has been generally developed with the construction of temples. Indian architecture stands as a material record for spiritualism. It is considered that god and his temple correspond to the sow and body of a human being. Chidambaram, the headquarters of the taluk of the same name in the Cuddalore district of Tamil Nadu is situated on the Villupuram-Mayiladuthurai section of the Southern Railway. The Nataraja temple complex as it stands today has an unrivalled serenity and dignity. It covers a rectangular area of between 52 and 53 acres – measuring nearly 400 yard in length and 350 yards in width.
