Lepakshi.





We finally took a break and headed to Lepakshi- a small village in Andhra Pradesh where you'll find amazing heritage temples with Vijayanagara style of architecture. The carved pillars, sculptures, the frescos and the history behind it just took my breath away.

The carved motifs on the pillars have been inspiration to many textile designers and you'll also find sarees & textiles with Lepakshi motifs on them.


I marvel at the heritage of India. There is so much still to discover! Do check out flickr later today.
