Right behind a toy store is a huge statue of the Hindu God, Lord Shiva. Shiva is one of the principal gods in the Hindu religion. He is often referred to as the destroyer. This statue is about 50 feet tall and definitely the biggest one I have seen in India although I am told there is another larger. We happen to pass by during the Diwali Festival at which time thousands of people in Bangalore go to pray to Shiva.
