    That is an interesting style, can’t say I’ve ever seen anything like it. Is there a name for it?

    Love the INDIA in all caps.

    Beautiful. Some of the most incredible buildings I’ve seen are Hindu temples in India. Even today they build temples that often feature incredible hand-carved reliefs (for example, the Akshardham in Delhi).

    At the other end of the spectrum are the wooden ones in the Himalayas. Really folksy and charming.

    Very much like the Kantijir (Kantajew) Temple in Dinajpur, northern Bangladesh. Kantaji Mandir
