In the Periya KOyil, around the sanctum sanctorum, the walls were painted with original fresco paintings.
But when the Naiyakkars took over, they plastered the original paintings and repainted with their pwn style of paintings.
But a few years ago, the archeological department or the UNESCO undertook to take out the Nayakkar frescos and preserve the original ChOlza paintings.
In fact, the 'Cholza Temples' book contains a few photos of the frescos. RajaRaja would be standing with a semi-transparent jibbha and sporting a beard. A few of his wives around.
Then I remember SundaraMUrthy NaAyanAr's ascent to heaven. CEramAn PerumAL is seen on a white horse. Just the scenario which AruNagiri sang in his NAdha vindhu kalAdhi namO nama, a few centuries hence.
Somebody nearby should take photos and place them on the web.

dear sps: vanakkam.. your narration on how all your activities began is interesting..i understand that inputs from several people have led to what we see today..you mentioned about the visit to the most important places connected with the RCC....
may i make a request: you know in many countries they provide a brief guide on the salient historical/architectural features of of places of visit... can you pl arrange to form a team of people who can put together available information on each of the temples and other places/monuments that you all think most important with pictures if possible so that people could use this...naive people like me could use this whenever we happen to go to such places...this could be in tamil and english so that it would have a wide reach...
i was a journalist and have some good experience in editing..but it seems we have many competent people..so editing may not be a problem..it can be the publication of our group to mark the tenth anniversary as well...
we can approach tourism dept to publish this if they desire so...
I belong to the kingdom of RRC and more so of his great son who lived in jeyankondam before he moved into GKPM..i go to JKM frequently as my wife is from there..and i do visit GKPM frequently...
