    Solution

    The 27-foot tall Nataraja statue has been installed at Bharat Mandapam to welcome foreign delegates for the G20 Summit. The magnificent Nataraja statue at Bharat Mandapam brings to life aspects of our rich history and culture. As the world gathers for the G20 summit, it will stand as a testament to India's age-old artistry and traditions. The world's tallest 'ashta-dhatu' (a mix of copper, zinc, lead, tin, silver, gold, mercury and iron) statue is truly one of its kind that has been made using the traditional sculpting technique -- the lost-wax casting method -- of the Chola period.
