Raja Gopura at Murdeshwar Temple

Raja Goura is a 20 storied building at Murdeshwar temple.

A Gopuram (Tamil:கோபுரம்) or Gopura, is a monumental tower, usually ornate, at the entrance of any temple, especially in Southern India. This forms a prominent feature of Koils, Hindu temples of the Dravidian style.^[1] They are topped by the kalasam, a bulbous stone finial. They function as gateways through the walls that surround the temple complex.           Source:Wikipedia
