The Unfinished Ratha and Stone Couch - Mamallapuram
Most of the ancient monuments located in Mamallapuram are partially finished. And, a few monuments have been just started off and remain unfinished forever. Near the most popular Mahisasuramardini Cave Temple, there is an unfinished monolithic Ratha shrine. It would have been a noteworthy attraction for sure had it been finished. Now, hardly any visitor could differentiate it from other rocks.
Near to this unfinished Ratha, there is a rock-cut couch with a headrest. It is one of four Pallava-era stone couches in Mamallapuram.
Happy travelling.
