Group of monuments at Mahabalipuram, Tamil Nadu


The French quarter of Puducherry

Mahabalipuram or Mamallapuram is a UNESCO World Heritage Site on the coast of the Bay of Bengal in Tamil Nadu. It houses a group of ancient rock-cut monuments built by the Pallava dynasty during the 7th and 8th centuries. The monuments exemplify the Hindu religion and culture of the time and depict religious or mythological figures and events. Some of these structures have been carved from a single gigantic rock and stand gracefully even today. The beauty of the structures has earned Mahabalipuram the title of an ‘open-air museum’.

Shaniwar Wada and Mastani Mahal (Raja Kelkar Museum), Pune

The beautiful stretch of Marine Drive, with the Arabian sea on one side, boasts of a large collection of art deco-style buildings. It should delight every architect, artist, and art enthusiast looking for structures that have stories to tell.
