Shore Temple, Mamallapuram

Shore Temple, Mamallapuram
Originally uploaded by crisis-tour.

As the name implies this temple sits on the shore overlooking the Bay of Bengal. It probably got a thorough washing but in the end survived the tsunami. Prior to the tsunami as the Indian ocean was receding, a ganisha temple was discovered off the shore. Presently, efforts are underway to rediscover and possibly build a Crispy Creme Donut shop inside the temple by introducing underwater tube technology connecting the two temples for the first time ever.
