I look like someone who had drunk the cup of life, and found a dead beetle at the bottom.

I did a 6-day tour of some of the important and interesting historical sites in and around Bhopal. My itinerary was largely based on inputs from @Hiddenheritage and the following books of Major General Sir Alexander Cunningham:
1. The Bhilsa Topes (1854) 2. Report of a Tour in Budelkhand and Malwa in 1874-77, Vol. 10 of Annual report of Archeological Survey of India.

I will be sharing some of the interesting things that I saw.

Caution: This is going to be a very very very very long thread. Don't doze off!

Recently, I travelled to the historic cities of Halebidu and Belur, erstwhile capitals of Hoysala Empire (10-14th CE). Hoysalas annexed parts of Western Chalukyan Empire and established their kingdom. Later, King Vishnuvardhana defeated the Cholas at a battle in Talakadu. The emblem of Hoysalas is a depiction of a Sala (a Jain Monk, here referring to Hoysalas) striking a tiger (referring to the Cholas). Though Hoysalas were initially Jains, they later became Hindus under the influence of Sage Ramanuja (Founder of Vishishtadvaitam).
