Mahabalipuram or Mamallapuram is a historic city and UNESCO World Heritage site in Tamil Nadu, India. During the reign of the Pallava dynasty,
between the 3rd century CE and 7th century CE, it became an important centre of art, architecture and literature. It is one of the famous tourist sites in India .
Mahabalipuram's early history is completely shrouded in mystery. Ancient mariners considered this place the land of the Seven Pagodas. There are others who think that Mahabalipuram suffered from a great flood between 10,000 and 13,000 BCE. Many opinions exist about the origin of the name of the site too. The most popular explanation is that the place is named after benevolent King Bali, also known as Mahabali.

The Adi Varaha Perumal Cave Temple is the earliest of all Pallava structures in Mahabalipuram。The temple is dedicated to Vishnu and its execution follows the spirit of Vaishnava Agamic texts.
