Treasure, Padmanabhaswamy temple

Treasure, thought to be worth billions of rupees, has been unearthed from Padmanabhaswamy temple (Kerala - India)

Gold, Silver, Precious Stones are among valuables found at Sree Padmanabhaswamy temple.
The temple was built in the 16th Century by the kings who ruled over the then kingdom of Travancore.

The royal family consider themselves to be servants of the presiding deity at the temple, Padmanabhaswamy (the Hindu God Vishnu in eternal sleep); this is why they historically entrusted their wealth to the temple.
