List of tallest Hindu deity statues

Last updated

This list of tallest Hindu deity statues includes completed statues that are at least 4 m (13 ft) tall. The height values in this list are measured to the highest part of the murti, but exclude the height of any pedestal (plinth), or other base platform as well as any mast, spire, or other structure that extends higher than the tallest figure in the monument.

Contents

The definition of statue for this list is a free-standing sculpture (as opposed to a relief), representing one or more people or animals (real or mythical), in their entirety or partially (such as a bust). Heights stated are those of the statue itself and (separately) the total height of the monument that includes structures the statue is standing on or holding. Monuments that contain statues are included in this list only if the statue fulfills these and the height criteria.

Existing statues

As of 2022, the main table includes 94 statues of height 4 m (13 ft) or taller.[ citation needed ]
