Belur & Halebid temples are UNESCO world heritage sites and have one of the finest collection of sculptures in India. The sculptures are fantastic in terms of the intricacy of the carvings. Best exemplifies by the bracelets on the arms of one of the dancer statues can be moved up and down! Another noteworthy characteristic of sculptures in Belur is that sculptures at Belur is that they are signed off by the respective sculptors like in a painting, often as a boastful epithet. Our cultural evangelist will take you back in time to the 12th century to relive the glory days of this Kingdom.

Hoysaleshwara and Belur temples are among the greatest masterpieces of Hindu architecture, with incredibly detailed carvings instead of being monumental. The whole trip was spot on: - starting with the guide, who explained the meanings of those carvings as well as immerse me into the hindu religious habits - ending with the very polite and friemdly driver Breakfast and lunch offered in local restaurants were also excellent.

The guide showed me insights on these unescl heritage masterpieces in Halebidu and Belur. The two sites are beyond beautiful in the mastery of carvings and the way they visualize hindu iconography. Excellent beakfast and lunch were also given as part of the trip and the driver was also a nice calm man.

This was a fun trip, the local guide was extremely knowledgeable and shared all stories about the gods and also architectural knowledge. The driver was polite and took us to eat very good snacks at places that are good for foreigners.
