Dharmaraja Ratha is a monument in the Pancha Rathas complex at Mahabalipuram, on the Coromandel Coast of the Bay of Bengal, in the Kancheepuram district of the state of Tamil Nadu, India. It is an example of monolith Indian rock-cut architecture. Dating from the late 7th century, it is attributed to the reign of King Mahendravarman I and his son Narasimhavarman I (630–680 AD; also called Mamalla, or "great warrior") of the Pallava Kingdom. The entire complex is under the auspices of the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI). It is one of the Group of Monuments at Mahabalipuram that were designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1984.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Group of Monuments at Mahabalipuram )〕 Resembling a chariot (''ratha''), it is carved out of a single, long stone of pink granite.〔 Though sometimes mistakenly referred to as a temple, the structure was not consecrated because it was not completed following the death of Narasimhavarman I.〔〔 The structure is named after the eldest of the Pancha Pandavas, of epic Mahabharata fame,〔〔 though the nomenclature is not supported by history.〔:File:Five rathas plaque.JPG〕 It is dedicated to Shiva. ==Geography== The structure is located at Mahabalipuram (previously known as Mammallapuram) on the Coromandel Coast of the Bay of Bengal in Kancheepuram district.
