Any structure that was constructed by Pandavas may easily have perished in course of time. We are talking about some 5000 years old structure. I would be happy to see if there is any thing that is built by Pandavas and has survived the onslaught of time.

I think this thread should also include Zoroastrian Fire Temples.

The largest indigenous population of Zoroastrians lives in India, where they number about 70,000 (wikipedia).

Parsis - the Zoroastrians of India

Here are some links to a few pretty cool 360 Panoramas of the two most important Hindu Temples in Gujarat. The views are fully navigateable so in that sense its the closest thing to actually being there and taking a look around...

NB: Quicktime needs to be installed in order to view, they take some time to load, but I think theyre worth it!

Dwarkadish

Somnath
