1.3 lakh tons of granite was used to build the Mandir which was transported by 3000 elephants from 60 km away. The Mandir was constructed without digging the earth. A timeless marvel, nothing ever comes close to the level of engineering used to construct the Brihadeeswara Mandir by the visionary Raja Raja Chola. Despite its towering height, the temple doesn't cast a shadow on the ground, leaving visitors astounded. Perhaps the most baffling aspect of the Brihadeeswara Temple is its mammoth dome, weighing a staggering 80 tons. Constructed entirely of granite and devoid of any modern engineering tools, this architectural marvel defies gravity.
