Veerabhadra temple in Lepakshi, Andhra Pradesh.
There are 70 pillars in front of the main temple. 69 touching the ground while one was balanced in hanging position.
Must be at least 1500 to 2000 kg pillar.
This engineering was 481 years ago!

If you love stone sculptures, #Lepakshi Veerabhadra mandir is a must visit place. 100s of exquisite Vijaya Nagara architecture murtis.
Puranas, Ramayana, Mahabharata... narrated everywhere.
Just two hours drive north of Bengaluru. From Krishna Deva Raya's brother's era.

There is a massive stone Sarpa protecting Shiva linga, behind the Veerabhadra temple in #Lepakshi.
One of the very few Vijayanagara era temples, that was unfinished. You can see from the backside.
