Question 512 e: The Golden Star!

Right. Try not using tineye for this one.
I mean, you'll resort to it, anyway.

Observe this picture.
Looks old. Centuries. The major clue lies in the picture. Will you please enlighten me as to which structure this.. um.. thing is a part of?



Straightforward enough.

    Sun temple, Konark

    The red herring is the Ajanta caves. Taj Mahal, Hampi, Golden temple at Amritsar and the Sun temple at konark are all listed in Times of India's "Seven Wonders of India".

    The other 3 are Gomateshwar, Nalanda and Khajuraho... :)
