Ծիածանի բոլոր գույներով ներկված հնդկական տաճարն ապշեցնում է իր գեղեցկությամբ (լուսանկարներ)

LIFE

Tert.am-ը գրում է.

Հնդկաստանի հարավային Թամիլնադ նահանգում է գտնվում աշխարհի ամենագեղեցիկ ու գույնզգույն տաճարներից մեկը` Մինաքշի տաճարը, որի բազմաթիվ աշտարակները ներկված են ծիածանի ամենատարբեր երանգներով։

Ինչպես նշում է The Daily Mail-ը, բացառիկ կառույցն «իսկական տոն է աչքերի համար»։ Ընդհանուր առմամբ, տաճարն ունի 14 աշտարակ, որոնց բարձրությունը 50 մ է: Դրանցից յուրաքանչյուրը զարդարված է գունավոր արձաններով, որոնց ընդհանուր թիվը գերազանցում է 33.000-ը։

Պարբերականը նշում է, որ օրիգինալ հինդուիստական տաճարն իր աչքի զարնող տեսքի շնորհիվ գրավում է մեծ թվով ուխտագնացների և զբոսաշրջիկների: Հայտնի է, որ օրական տաճար է այցելում 15.000-25.000 մարդ։

It is not just outside that is decorated: isitors can wander around the temple and see sights like this ornate hall

Centrepiece: The temple forms the heart and lifeline of the 2500-year-old city of Madurai 

Between 15,000 and 25,000 people visit Madurai's Meenakshi-Sundareshwarar temple daily to be consecrated in marriage (with the promise of health, wealth and children)

As darkness falls some of the rising gateway towers, or gopurams, are lit up against the night's sky

Rising up to 170 feet in the air, the 12 adorned towers of the Meenakshi Temple are covered in an impressive display of around 33,000 sculptures - all accentuated with a riot of bright colours

The total site covers a 45 acre patch and includes several shrines to the goddess Meenakshi, a manifestation of the Hindu goddess Parvati - the wife of Lord Shiva

For now though, the rainbow temple catches the attention of thousands of visitors who flock to the Hindu site for blessings

Several restoration projects have taken place in recent years with the intention of restoring the Meenakshi Temple to its original state

The enamel coverings may look captivating, but many fear for the state of the sculptures underneath

The main structures and artwork of the site were created in the 16th to 18th century but the bright paint was applied recently to mark festivals and large events

Attention grabbing: Each is decorated with ornate patterns and sculptures of gods, goddesses, demons and animals
