Solution : The correct answer is Rathas.

A group of monuments known as the Pancha Rathas are located in the Tamil Nadu state of Mahabalipuram on the Coromandel Coast of the Bay of Bengal. It is an illustration of monolithic Indian rock-cut architecture. Each of the five monuments in the Pancha Rathas complex is carved on a single, long granite stone or monolith that slopes slightly north-south and is shaped like a chariot (ratha).
