  • Resumen

  • In this episode of the podcast, we shall delve into the fascinating world of Dravida temples. While we have briefly studied Nagara and its subdivisions in the north, Dravida temples predominantly belong to southern India, with Vesara temples found in the central part. Whether you find yourself in the temples of Tamil Nadu or the grand structures of Rajasthan, each temple tells a story of devotion, artistry, and the enduring legacy of India’s rich architectural heritage.

    We’ll take a look at how gopurams of Dravida temples are not merely decorative; but also function as gateways — marking the transition from the secular to the sacred — and how, the Dravida style, with its focus on precision and detailed sculptures, contrasts with the Nagara style’s emphasis on verticality and ornate spires.

    Tune in to listen and expand your knowledge about the histories behind the temples in India and their architectural wonders. Streaming now on Spotify and Apple Podcast. (Head to our website for more details)
