Full-Day Private Tour to the Kanchipuram Temples from Chennai

Kanchipuram is one of the seven sacred cities of Hinduism. The Pallava kings who ruled here between the 4th and 9th centuries pioneered the Dravidian stone temple tradition that shaped temple architecture across South and Southeast Asia. Kailasanathar Temple, built around 700 CE by King Narasimhavarman II, is one of the earliest structural temples in South India. Ekambareswarar Temple is one of the five Pancha Bhuta Sthalas, with a mango tree said to be over 3,500 years old. The city is equally famous for its silk sarees, woven in pure mulberry silk with gold zari borders by thousands of weaving families. Go behind the showroom: visit a silk dyeing unit, then sit in a weaving family’s home to watch a saree take shape on the loom. Dyers and weavers are paid directly by 5 Senses Tours. Private car from Chennai, expert guide, entry fees included. Ministry of Tourism approved. Outlook Responsible Tourism Award. Tripadvisor Travellers Choice 2025.
