what about the budha status in Hyderabad India… in the midile of hussen sagar.
Yeah.. I know about the Buddha statue in Hussain Sagar. I didn’t include it because it’s height is below 30m.
Anyone thought of marking all of these up in Google Earth and providing a .kmz file?
Just a suggestion in the off case anyone had a spare evening…
