Gangaikonda Cholapuram was erected as the capital of the Cholas by Rajendra Chola I. The Vimana with its recessed corners and upward movement presents a striking contrast to the straight-sided pyramidal tower of Thanjavur but with octagon shape of Dravidian architecture. The Vimana is flanked on either side by small temples.
