Next, we make our way to the Pancha Rathas, a group of monolithic rock-cut temples. These five chariot-shaped structures showcase exquisite craftsmanship and are dedicated to the Pandava brothers from the Mahabharata.
Continuing our exploration, we visit the Cave Temples, which are adorned with intricate bas-reliefs depicting various Hindu deities. Be amazed by the grandeur of the Mahishasuramardini Mandapa, a rock-cut cave temple dedicated to the goddess Durga.

Passing by the Ganesh Rath, a monolithic shrine dedicated to Lord Ganesha, we arrive at Krishna's Butter Ball, a massive boulder that defies gravity, seemingly balancing on a small incline.
Prepare to be mesmerized by the breathtaking Arjuna's Penance, an enormous relief sculpture showcasing various mythological tales. Our day concludes at the renowned Ananda Bhawan Restaurant, where we indulge in delicious evening snacks, savoring the flavors of the region.
Finally, we return to our comfortable Dakshina Chita Guest House, a serene oasis amidst the bustling town. Reflecting on the day's experiences, we can't help but feel grateful for the opportunity to witness the rich cultural heritage and architectural marvels that Mahabalipuram has to offer.
