The Sacred Ensembles of Hoysala temples in Karnataka has been placed on the UNESCO Heritage List on Monday, a day after West Bengal's Shanti Niketan. India proposed the Hoysala holy ensembles for UNESCO's World Heritage List in January of last year.
The Hoysala holy ensembles, erected in the 12th-13th century and represented by the three components of Belur, Halebid, and Somnathapura, demonstrate to the ingenuity and ability of the Hoysala artists and builders who produced these never-before-seen marvels.
