We went to Le Pakshi again. I'm beginning to realise a growing fascination for this place. This time I went with one intention, to see the Giant Footprint in the temple premises. According to folklore this footprint was made by Sri Hanuman when he was flying to Lanka to give Lord Rama's ring to Sita. Some scientific minds would say that this is proof of Nephilims, giant men who once inhabited the earth. Whatever it is, It is definitely interesting to see a perfectly shaped footprint etched in granite. This footprint also has a steady stream of water trickling in at all points of time. Nobody knows where the water comes from but apparently the foot is never dry. There are always a few devotees who will sprinkle this 'holy' water onto their heads. So apart from the Nandi Bull statue,the ancient carvings and the murals, Le Pakshi is turning out to be really interesting.
