The celebrations continued on Wednesday, as 33 contestants from Europe and the Americas visited the over 800-year-old Ramappa Temple, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Dressed in traditional ikkat half-sarees, they listened attentively to the temple’s rich history during a guided tour. A truly heartwarming sight — a few of the contestants even joined in the Bathukamma festivities.
