## Caption

Where time stands still & history remains frozen in intricately carved stones that have remained as sentinels of time, a witness to centuries of change; of multitudes of people; of bloody wars & of joyous festivities & celebrations! And yet, almost God-like, remained mute spectators to this march across time, concealing so many secrets & stories within them ! 

Was a walk into this past at the 1500+ year old Bhoganandishwara temple with influences of Ganga, Hoysala, Chola and Vijayanagara styles of architecture. 

The best part was getting locked in by mistake in this ancient building & somehow managing to scamper out in ladders specially brought in ! 

P:C: An adorable & wonderful person who never uses the amazing photography skills (amongst so many others that remain unexplored, despite my protests & urgings!!) & prefers anonymity 😂😘📸📷
