A model of what will be the world’s largest religious monument was unveiled on Wednesday in Patna, India, by Bihar chief minister Nitish Kumar, reports the Times of India.
The proposed Virat Ramayan Mandir will dwarf others, as it will stand almost double the height of world-famous temple complex Angkor Wat in Cambodia, which is 215 feet high, according to India Today. Angkor Wat is the current holder of the title, “World’s Largest Religious Monument.”
The 190-acre site is already being readied for construction, which will commence soon, according to Acharya Kishore Kunal, who is the secretary of the group behind the project, Mahavir Mandir Trust. The complex will include 18 temples with high spires, with a jaw-dropping seating capacity of 20,000 people.
