Kunda Satyanarayana Kaladhamam, also known as Surendrapuri
Mythological
Museum, is considered to be an abode of artistic excellence. This Hindu mythology
museum is located around 60 km from Hyderabad in Andhra Pradesh. The museum was
established by Kunda Satyanarayana in memory of his son Surendra.
What to See
The person who visits Surendrapuri Museum will always
have a rare feeling of holiness within him. The sculptures and paintings depict
stories from Hindu epics like Ramayana and Mahabharata. The fantastic carvings
of some important events that happened in Ramayana, Mahabharata or other great
epics are maintained in an unparalleled way. Of them the most heart touching,
seems to be the scene from Bhagavad Gita where Lord Krishna is advising Arjuna
to get on for the Kurukshetra war and this sculpture is almost 36 feet high.
Surendrapuri Museum architecture becomes one of the best
when one sees hundreds of nearly full sized replicas of important Hindu temples
in India. Enormous posters of gods and goddesses in varied posters could also
be seen. Visitors get wonderstruck seeing the modules of Lord Hanuman carrying
Sanjivani Mountain and also Hanuman on his own, giving away prasad to his
devotees. Other noted gallery sculptures include Vishwarupam, Yamaloka, Naga
loka, Padmadweepam, Calcutta Kali statue and Shiva’s baaraat.
