Belur y Halebid, patrimonio mundial de la humanidad, con templos escultóricos
Descripción
Los templos de Belur y Halebid son sitios declarados Patrimonio de la Humanidad por la UNESCO y tienen una de las mejores colecciones de esculturas de la India. Las esculturas son fantásticas en términos de la complejidad de las tallas. ¡El mejor ejemplo son las pulseras en los brazos de una de las estatuas de bailarinas que se pueden mover hacia arriba y hacia abajo! Otra característica notable de las esculturas en Belur es que están firmadas por los respectivos escultores como en una pintura, a menudo como un epíteto jactancioso. Nuestro evangelista cultural lo llevará al pasado, al siglo XII, para revivir los días de gloria de este Reino.

Visitamos el famoso templo Chennakesava de Belur, cuya construcción tardó más de 100 años. C Las próximas horas las pasaremos dentro de este complejo de templos. Algunos de los aspectos más destacados de este templo son las intrincadas tallas de animales y bailarines en las paredes del templo. Se han tallado en piedra episodios de epopeyas como el Ramayana y el Mahabharata. La sala principal tiene esculturas que son fantásticas en términos de la complejidad de las tallas. Las pulseras en los brazos de una de las estatuas de bailarinas se pueden mover hacia arriba y hacia abajo. ¡El tocado de otra estatua de bailarina tiene un anillo móvil! Otra característica notable de las esculturas en Belur es que están firmadas por los respectivos escultores como en una pintura, a menudo como un epíteto jactancioso.
Después del almuerzo nos dirigimos a Halebid, la otra capital del imperio Hoyasala. Ha sido declarado patrimonio de la humanidad por la UNESCO. Ubicado a 16 km de Belur, hay dos puntos destacados de Halebid. Pasamos un par de horas en los 2 magníficos templos dentro del complejo dedicados a Hoysalesvara y Shantalesvara. La otra escultura de interés es una estatua gigante de Nandi, el toro sagrado del Señor Shiva, que tardó 86 años en construirse. Sería interesante observar las venas representadas con gracia en la cara.

I had a wonderful day visiting the amazing Belur and Halebidi temples with Mr Murali, with Mr Manjunath as my driver. Mr Manjunath was very kind and thoughtful and put me at ease, as well as making sure we had delicious food and drinks along the way there and back. Mr Murali met us at the temples and was an excellent and engaging guide, with a great depth of knowledge about these incredible works of art. He helped to understand the stories being told, to appreciate the context of the site and to notice unexpected details. Very highly recommended.
The temple of Belur and Halebidu are our cultural heritage sites. One must go to each of them for a full day to spend. We engaged the official guide and when they understand our interest, they also get energy to explain. Each tile, each carving has a story to tell. One gets astonished at the intricacy of carving with minute details. Also worth to see the the latest fashion and trends were known and showed with details. Who can imagine the ladies wear stocking, the child using straw to drink and the tread of non skid tyres carved on a wheel. Must visit with interest and time to spare.
Thanks so much for your kind review. It was our pleasure to host you on the tour of Belur and Halebid.
Really recommend taking this trip and see these temples. The driver and the guide provided great service and made this trip very smooth. I would recommend doing some pre study of Hinduism to get the most out of the tour since there is a lot of information provided. Of course everything was explained (I.e. it was not expected that I had previous knowledge) but receiving this much information at once may be overwhelming for some. Lunch was good, the car was very good with AC and I felt safe. Thank you for sharing your culture and history.
Very glad to know that you enjoyed the tour of Belur and Halebid. Thanks for this opportunity to host you.
Not very far off from Bangalore, this architectural site is a marvel, not to be missed. Though it is sad to see the ruins & broken sculptures , one would still be amazed at the work done by a by gone era. Though it was a bit crowded when we went on a Sunday, Halebid is cleaner. Guides are available to answer your questions for a price.
I am glad you enjoyed Belur and Halebid. Thanks for taking the time to review this tour. It was our pleasure hosting you.
Hoysaleshwara and Belur temples are among the greatest masterpieces of Hindu architecture, with incredibly detailed carvings instead of being monumental. The whole trip was spot on: - starting with the guide, who explained the meanings of those carvings as well as immerse me into the hindu religious habits - ending with the very polite and friemdly driver Breakfast and lunch offered in local restaurants were also excellent.
The guide showed me insights on these unescl heritage masterpieces in Halebidu and Belur. The two sites are beyond beautiful in the mastery of carvings and the way they visualize hindu iconography. Excellent beakfast and lunch were also given as part of the trip and the driver was also a nice calm man.
This was a fun trip, the local guide was extremely knowledgeable and shared all stories about the gods and also architectural knowledge. The driver was polite and took us to eat very good snacks at places that are good for foreigners.
The temples at Halebid and Belur are just magnificent! The intricate carvings left us spellbound. While elements have damaged the sculptures somewhat, these are still very impressive. ASI has done a decent job in beautifying the the whole complex and it is reasonably clean. Worth a visit for anybody looking for great architecture and sculptures.
We had the most amazing day exploring the architectural wonders of Belur and Halebidu thanks to our incredible driver Mr. Mohan and tour guide Mr. Hegde. Mr. Mohan was professional, courteous, and extremely skilled at navigating traffic which made our journey stress free. Mohan pointed out interesting landmarks along the way which made our journey informative and truly unforgettable. Our tour guide Mr. Hegde was very knowledgeable about the history, art, architecture, and culture behind the temples. He brought the intricate carving and sculptures to life with detailed storytelling highlighting the royal members involved from the Hoysala dynasty. They coordinated perfectly to ensure that we had ample time at each site and helped us find great spots for lunch, and refreshments.
We did a 6 day/5 night customized tour including Belur and Halebidu (along with Hampi, Badami, Aihole and Shravanabelagola) with 5 Senses Tours and had a wonderful experience. All the arrangements from hotel accommodation, food recommendations and especially the local guides were perfect. The guides were very knowledgeable and patiently explained all the minute details. Driver Mohan was very friendly and helpful. I highly recommend 5 Senses!
