Today we visited 7th century shrines carved during the reign of King Mamalla, (B.C. 630-670). Each temple is a monolith carved whole from an outcropping of rock. A walk out to the Bay of Bengal took us to the Shore Temple, maintained as a world heritage site. On December 26, 2004 it was violently hit by the waves of the deadly tsunami. The doorway above was from a restored home typical of southern India one hundred years ago.
