Known as Krishnas butterball this large granite boulder is one of many monuments that can be visited in Mahabalipuram

The Descent of the Ganges also known as Arjunas penance is a giant open air rock relief

Mahabalipuram is a fishing village and every morning a fleet of boats heads out for the daily catch

A tractor is utilized to push the boats into the surf in the morning

I enjoyed hanging out with this guy as he reeled in his dinner every afternoon

Quite the fragrant but also extremely loud job
