Kadalekalu Ganesha Temple, Hampi: A Unique Monument in Stone

Summary edit

Description
English: This giant statue of Ganesha was carved out of a huge boulder at the northeastern slope of the Hemakuta hill. The belly of this statue resembles a Bengal gram (Kadalekalu, in the local language) and hence the name. A sanctum is built around the statue. The pillared hall in front of this sanctum is as charming as this giant statue itself. The open hall was constructed with unusually slender and tall pillars. Each of them is highly ornate with mythical themes.
