| Video Discription | South India’s towering temple gateways and gopurams are among its most iconic architectural features. But why are gopurams not a thing in North India? Why do so few medieval temples survive in the North? Anirudh Kanisetti explains how finances, social behaviour, and invasions shaped South India’s glorious gopurams. Sources: Dehejia, Vidya.
