These pics are from inside the Sri Ranganathaswamy Temple, the largest active temple complex, I believe, in the world.
Please click on the pic to enlarge.

| First, a self-portrait, from an auto-rickshaw in the reflection of a shiny side of a bus. |
 |
| Unfortunately, the entire complex was under re-painting (on the Gopuram gates) and a massive multi-year reconstruction, so some areas were closed off that wouldn't be normally. Still an amazing place. |
 |
| A Gopuram under wraps, with new, but unfinished, painting . |
 |
| The temple is like a small city, with roads and alleys filled with shops and side of street vendors. |
 |
| Pre-made offerings |
 |
| ...and if you need some beads, there are plenty available. |
 |
| ...or post-cards. |
