Talk:Thanjavur

Geography of Thanjavur
Though the Thanjavur district is known for its fertility and arable soil good for rice cultivation, Thanjavur city and its surrounding areas aren't. The Thanjavur and Pattukkottai taluks are generally rugged and less fertile than the northern taluks of Kumbakonam and Papanasam. This is a well-known fact.- Ravi My Tea Kadai 13:02, 22 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Surrounding as in where? The TNAU references provided clear agricultural divisions - the vallam/pudukottai road sides are table lands/non-arable. I specifically kept those details about soil texture for this confusing part. Well within the town limits, there are fertile agricultural areas. The routes like tanjore-mannargudi, tanjore-kbk, tanjore- tiruvarur are more than fertile. Thanjavur taluk being less fertile is highly relative and doesnt mean there are no arable lands at all.
 * Also the historical roadways from Chola period connected all major ports to the capital. If Tower of London had a route connecting Thames to ports, the Chola capital also had similar routes linking the rajapattai with important cities & ports. Historic roads with no link to capital cities is never a possibility. Ssriram mt (talk) 02:49, 2 August 2012 (UTC)


 * I've modified the statement as per Pg 261 of Hemingway's Tanjore Gazetteer and Pg 5 of Gough's book.- Ravi My Tea Kadai 11:44, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

This has passed as a Wikipedia Good Article
(I have "duplicated" this here for when the review is no longer transcluded.)

What a well-done and thorough article! This passes as a Wikipedia Good Article. I usually try to offer suggestions for further improvement/development and am hard-pressed to do so except for two small ones. It would be a nice addition to add an image of a typical part of the city, possibly it's center. Most of the images are for "special" places and items. Also, you might want to note on the talk page header that the article uses British English so that there is clarity / no confusion on that. Congratulations!
