Manora Fort is 20 KM away from the town of Pattukkottai in Thanjavur district of Tamil Nadu. The fort is picturesquely located in lush greenery surrounded by swaying coconut palms, overlooking the azure waters of the Bay of Bengal. You can’t miss it with its 8 storey, 75 feet high hexagonal tower soaring towards the sky. The tower, which is a striking blend of different architectural styles, is surrounded by a moat and offers stunning views of the sea and the surrounding dense green coconut groves. Locals claim that in the olden days, the Fort overlooked Sri Lanka, a claim unproven so far.
