Explanation

The world's largest panoramic sculptural relief is located at Mahabalipuram (Mamallapuram) in Tamil Nadu. It's called 'Arjuna's Penance' or 'Descent of the Ganges' and dates to the 7th century Pallava dynasty. The massive relief (29m x 13m) is carved on two boulders. Kanchipuram, Madurai, and Pondicherry do not have this specific monument.
