Krishna's Butterball, Mahabalipuram - the mystery, myths and the history

Visit the famous Butterball at the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Mahabalipuram, also called Mamallapuram in South India, and listen to stories of how it came to be - the history and more interestingly, the many associated myths.

Mamallapuram is home to many ancient monoliths, cave temples and bas-reliefs built by the Pallavas. These 1300-year-old monuments showcase the evolution of temple building in South India.
