DescriptionChettinad Mansion Kanadukathan.jpg | A view of the artistically carved woodwork frame that support the roof of one of the mansions in Kanadukathan, near Karaikudi, District Sivaganga, Tamilnadu. This is the verandah of the second quadrangle, meant to be used by married sons of the family, the first being meant for receptions and meetings and the last meant for the womenfolk. The central quadrangle is surrounded by verandahs on all sides. Beautiful, carved pillars support the frame which holds the roof of tiles. The opulence and elegance of these famed mansions built around the beginning of the 20th century have to be seen to believe. Rich and enterprising Chettiars - they themselves prefer to be known as Nagarthars or ‘city dwellers’ - spread to many parts of Asia (like Burma, Malaya, Singapore and Sri Lanka) in search of riches through trading. Many of the expensive material used in these houses were imported from these places and from Europe. These majestic residences also earned the owners the sobriquet, Nattukottai Chettiars, or those with fort-like houses in the countryside. | ||
