À propos

Faits rapides: One of the largest stone sculptures of Ganesha idols measures an impressive 2.4 meters in height. The name "Sasivekalu" means "mustard seed" and refers to the young, plump depiction of Ganesha with a mustard seed-like figure.

Points forts: A fascinating feature is the monolithic granite sculpture, which was built without joints and is over 2000 years old. Visitors are amazed by the finely crafted details of the mustache and the human facial features, which are rarely found in Ganesha statues.
