It was indeed a pagan town with its famous rock with its pagoda of Siva at the top towering over it. But hewit looked narrow and winding Small streets its terraced house here and there covered with Coconut leaves or country titles what plots of ground, it graves of Coconut trees and its paddy fields watered by the Cauvery and a canal from it across the river.
