Question

Which of the following is not declared as a world heritage site?

• A. Hampi
• B. Pattadakal
• C. Western Ghats
• D. Chamundi Hill

Answer 1

The correct option is D Chamundi Hill

Chamundi Hill is not declared as world heritage site.

Named after the goddess Chamundi, the Chamundeshwari Temple sits atop the main hill. The main hill itself features an ancient stone stairway of 1,008 steps leading to its summit. Approximately halfway to the summit is statue of bull Nandi, the vahana, or "vehicle" of Lord Shiva, which is 4.9 m tall and 7.6 m long and carved out of a single piece of black granite. Around this point, the steps become significantly less steep and eventually the climber is rewarded with a panoramic view of the city.
