Informations supplémentaires

Mahabalipuram lies on the Coromandel Coast which faces the Bay of Bengal. It has various historic monuments built largely during the reigns of Narasimhavarman and his successor Rajasimhavarman (Pallava dynasty -between the 7th and the 9th century), and has been classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1984. The Shore Temple (700-728 CE) is so named because it overlooks the Bay of Bengal. It is a structural temple, built with blocks of granite. It is one of the oldest structural stone temples of South India.
