Alrighty....This is a Kalyani [a holy waterpool] in Nandi. Most of you would know Nandi as the nearest hill station/ tourist spot to Bangalore. But the name 'Nandi' comes from the village-town that is at the bottom of the hill. This temple/monument is the oldest of its kind you can find in and around Bangalore. The architectural style includes that of the Cholas, Kadambas and Hoysalas. Click on the picture for more pictures
Its special to me cos my parents were married here, I was born close by and well...its home..
