Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Veerabhadra Temple, Lepakshi Temple Rd, Lepakshi India
We explore this 16th century masterpiece of Vijaynagara style of architecture. First in line is the section called Mukha Mandapa which served as the venue for dance and other cultural activities. We then visit the Artha Mandapa where the King did his worship and where the Garbha Griha houses the deity. What follows is a unique wedding hall made from grey sandstone with 38 carved monolithic pillars where Lord Shiva and Lady Parvati were supposed to have got married in antiquity!
Duration: 2 hours
Stop At: Lepakshi Bull, near Hindupur Hindupur - Anantpur Highway, Lepakshi 515331 India
India’s largest Nandi Bull statue beckons us at Lepakshi. Made from a single granite block this statue stands 15 feet tall and 27 feet long. We can marvel at the bejeweled Nandi who wears a kaasu malai, a bell chain, earrings and other jewelry!
