Question

Which was the capital and coastal town of pallavas ?​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Kanchipuram

Fierce rivals of the Cholas, the Pallavas were another South Indian dynasty that ruled a significant portion of southern India. Modern day Kanchipuram, located near Chennai, was at the center of the tussle between the two great empires. Recognised back then as Kanchi, the city was adjudged the capital of the Pallava.

Answer 2

The capital and the coastal town of Pallavas were Kanchipuram and Mamallapuram ( Mahabalipuram) respectively.

• The country of the Tamils was divided in half around the end of the sixth century. Specifically, the Pandyas and the Pallavas.
• The Pandyas in the south had Madurai as their city, and the Pallavas in the north had Kanchipuram as their capital. Kanchipuram thus served as the Pallav dynasty's capital.
• When the Pallavas were at their most powerful, their kingdoms stretched from the northern section of Andhra Pradesh to the River Kaveri in the south.
• Mamallapuram was a coastal town for the Pallava kingdom of South India in the seventh century.
• It has a collection of sanctuaries that were sculpted out of rock along the Coromandel Coast in the seventh and eighth centuries, including rathas (temples in the shape of chariots), mandapas (sanctuaries in caves), enormous open-air rock reliefs like the well-known Descent of the Ganges, and the Shore Temple, which has countless sculptures honoring Shiva.
