South India is famous for its amazing art and architecture, which you can see everywhere—from temples to palaces. The Dravidian style is very common here, with tall gopurams (towering gateways), carved pillars, and beautiful stone sculptures. Temples like the Meenakshi Temple in Madurai or the Brihadeeswarar Temple in Thanjavur show incredible detail and craftsmanship.
You’ll also find sculptures and bronze statues, which are admired for their grace and artistry. Murals and paintings on temple walls tell stories from epics like the Ramayana and Mahabharata. In Kerala, colorful murals inspired by Kathakali dance are a great example of local storytelling.
South India is also known for its traditional crafts. Tanjore paintings, Mysore paintings, wooden carvings, and stone inlay work are some of the famous arts that show the local culture. If you want to experience this heritage in a relaxing setting, resorts and cultural spaces like Pebbles and Beans Resort, CGH Earth Hotels, The Oberoi in Bangalore, or Rainforest Resort in Wayanad offer beautiful surroundings that reflect South India’s rich artistic traditions.
