Thanjavur Culture Walk

Embark upon a journey discovering Thanjavur's indigenous crafts

One can walk through Thanjavur’s streets to delve further into its cultural heritage; pass the traditional instrument makers as they carve wood into the stringed veena, visit homes of local folk to learn more about their ways of life or for a private veena performance, or meet Tanjore painting artisans and discover the techniques behind this age-old style. Another interesting art form to explore is the Bommai Kolu, as it is known in Tamil Nadu, wooden or clay dolls used to depict scenes from ancient texts, everyday life or royal traditions set up by young girls or women. The Kolu dolls crafted in Thanjavur are passed on as heirlooms, a tradition that is also carried out in Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh.
