The Nandi at the legendary Brihadeeshwara Temple at Thanjavur.
The Nandi opposite the ancient Virupaksha Temple at Pattadakal.
The Nandi at the Airavateswara Temple in Darasuram.
The intricate & ornate Nandi at the Hoysaleswara Temple in Halebidu.
The Nandi from the Bhoghanandeeshwara Temple at Nandi village.
The super smooth & shiny Nandi at the Aghoreshwara Temple in Ikkeri.
The Nandi at the footsteps of the Matanga hills at Hampi. It lines up collinearly with the Virupaksha Temple nearly a kilometer away.
