Image of Srirangam Temple[edit]

"Ranganathaswamy Temple, Srirangam" is the biggest temple in India, located in Tamil Nadu and has more than 800 inscriptions in Different languages (more in Tamil). The temple got the UNESCO Asia Pacific Heritage Award in year 2017. It was also nominated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and is in UNESCO's tentative list. Such a great temple finds no image in the article of Tamil Nadu. Please do add an image of this great temple. There are images of 10th century CE temples too but this temple is older (even mentioned in Sangam Literature, Example Silapadikaram (book 11, lines 35–40)), bigger and one of the most visited sites all over India.

Change the Image of Vetuvan koil to Image of Parthasarathy Perumal Temple. Vettuvan Koil is just 8th Century CE but Sri Parthasarathi Perumal Temple, Chennai dates way earlier to 5th Century CE or even older. The Structure finds a mention even in the Brahmanda Puranam, Naalayira Divya Prabandham and many more books. The temple also has inscriptions about the Pallava king, Nandivarman who lived between (718 CE – 796 CE).[1] One of the earliest Alvars Pey Alvar (who lived between 5th and 6th Century)[2] has mentioned this temple, which makes the temple The Oldest structure in Chennai.

The article states the following:

Tamil Nadu is the home of the Tamil people, whose speak Tamil language

This ought to be changed to:

Tamil Nadu is the home of the Tamil people, who speak the Tamil language

which is more grammatically correct. Kuulopuhe (talk) 22:55, 27 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Unless this construction is correct in Indian English, the form in which the article is written (and with which I am not familiar). Kuulopuhe (talk) 22:57, 27 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

We need to add "Dhanushkodi" under the Tourism section, as the place has a significant history, also we record so many tourists visiting the place every year. — Preceding unsigned comment added by AnanyaBDas (talk • contribs) 13:59, 1 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
