Some personal commitments kept me away from blogging . I am back and making a quick post from my travel .
As I am raking my brain where to start let me post one from my recent Lepakshi visit. Once I get into the groove more will follow.
Lepakshi is a small town in Andhra Pradesh and I had visited the 16th century Veerbahdra Swamy temple in February 2020 and was totally astonished to see the multi pillared dance hall here in front of the main temple. The 70 odd pillar hall has a single pillar suspended from the roof which doesn’t touch the ground. This is nothing short of a miracle as it has baffled many architects and engineers and many have even tried to find the secret behind the same without any success. This pillar keeps everyone guessing.
A great salute to the great architects of yore.Really incredible!!

Similar to this is a pillar in Chennakesava Perumal temple Belur
I have visited Belur twice but I didn’t see. may be i missed but one at Lepakshi is famous and Belur it is not mentioned anywhere.
In Belur at the entrance the guide showed us and said it is called as gravity pillar of 42 feet height
