Subash,

I love the temple but don't know about the rocks.
Their size as photographed makes them a dominant part of the photo.
I wondered what their actual dimensions were.
I suppose they are much smaller than the temple?
This leades to a bit of visual confusion on my part.

The age of the temple is amazing - no earthquakes I presume.
We have nothing so old in North America, only cliff dwellings in the southwest.
I think the age is older than most churches in Europe,
funny how religion mobilized both societies to build.

Regards,  Bob S.
