The #BhojpurTemple has one of the tallest and grandest Shiva Lingams in India. And it’s built out of a single rock. Considering this 1000 year old #ShivaTemple was actually unfinished, imagine how grand it would have looked had it been completed.

#KadalekaluGanesha!

This giant statue of #LordGanesha was carved out of a huge boulder at the northeastern slope of the #HemakutaHill. The belly of this statue resembles a Bengal gram (#Kadalekalu, in 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 constructed by unusually slender and tall pillars. Each of them is highly ornate with mythical themes.

This 4.5 meters (15 feet) tall statue is one among the largest sculptures in Hampi. The pillared hall is a vantage point to survey the environs, especially the #HampiBazaar and the foothills of #MatangaHill.
