    Write a short note on Shore Temples.       

    Answer:

    Shore Temple at Mahabalipuram built by the Pallavas is one of the earliest Hindu temples. It is a five-storeyed structure made of blocks of granite. It is not carved out of rock. It is dedicated to both Shiva and Vishnu. It was built in such a way that the rays of the rising sun light up the temple. The same is reflected on the waters after sunset.
