Some of these pictures are from Hampi a village in Northern Karnataka – India, said to have been built around AD 1336-1570. As you can see the craftsmanship on these artifacts is intricate and unique and has stood the wrath of time warranting to be called signature specimens of the timelessness of art.

fantastic photos
Thank you 🙂
Incredible….
Thank you 🙂
You’re welcome. When I go and check out others photos it reminds me of how little I have seen live… It is a sad and promising experience 🙂
Its funny you say that, because I feel like that too. It is indeed a humbling reminder that the world is a large place and there is just too much to see and know.
I agree! Isn’t it… We have limited time in day/month/year, limited funds… I guess if one really wants to travel and explore it is just a point of making it a reality. I know I am going to see a lot of places but don’t feel the need for it to happen right now, many reasons included. But then, if you’re in India, you can’t be at home, enjoying time with your friends… It is really about being satisfied with where we are at this moment. So easy to say, hehe 🙂
The intricacies are amazing…. so hard to imagine the work involved…. Diane
Yes, they must have been very skilled artists. Thank you for stopping by Diane.
All wonderful, Neha ! – I’ve never understood how so much fine detail was arrive at back then …
Yes there is much to be said about the “how’s” of their fine artistry. But that the artistry is superb, to that there is no doubt. I only hope we do not lose such pieces of work due to neglect and lack of care. They are our legacy. Thanks for your comment.
These are beautiful! I am often reminded how there are so many interesting places in this world…1 lifetime is not enough it experience even a fraction of it. Thankfully, I can get a glimpse of different worlds – and hopefully share mine – through photography.
Thank you also for following my site. I’m following yours too with pleasure!
Best wishes from Japan,

My pleasure. Thanks for stopping by.
fascinating structures!
Yes, aren’t they? 🙂
The skills and endless hours of so many talented craftspeople are embodied in these structures – truly a testament to the endurance of their amazing talent.
Thank you for your kind words. Yes indeed, it is a testament to the thousands of nameless people who shared their vision, artistry and toil to make this happen.
I always feel like I could reach out and touch the scenery in your photos. You always make me feel as if I am standing right there.
Very beautiful indeed. Incredible craftsmanship.
I did not know this existed, and am glad You’ve posted these pictures!
