Ekaant S01E17 - Martand

Episode Overview

Perched grandly on a plateau overlooking the flood plains of Kashmir, the magnificent ruins of the Sun Temple of Martand stand as a testament to a bygone era. Often described as “a dream in stone crafted by giants and completed by artisans,” this temple is a remarkable part of the heritage left by the formidable Lalitaditya Mukhtapid of the Karkota dynasty, which once ruled from the thriving capital of Parihaspora. Once known as the city of smiles, it now lies in ruins. We glimpse the splendor of Kashmir through the story of one of its beloved figures.
