New York to Gommateshwara Statue
Visit the Gommateshwara Statue from New York
The brief
Visiting the Gommateshwara Statue from New York, USA is a single managed mission with MyTripMyTravel. Flight: ~14 to 15 hrs (non-stop) to Delhi. Gateway: Delhi (DEL). On-ground in Shravanabelagola: escorted access to the Gommateshwara Statue, pre-arranged at the prime viewing hour, with a vetted guide and the chauffeured Elite Fleet from arrival.
The Colossal Monolith of Bahubali The Gommateshwara Statue at Shravanabelagola, Karnataka, India, is a 57-foot (about 17-metre) monolithic image of the Jain figure Bahubali, carved from a single block of granite around 981 CE at the behest of Chavundaraya, a minister of the Western Ganga dynasty. Standing atop Vindhyagiri hill, reached by a barefoot climb of some 600-plus rock-cut steps, it is among the tallest free-standing monolithic statues in the world.
From New York, the routing is the first decision: Delhi (DEL) is the gateway. From New York, the chauffeured leg to Shravanabelagola runs on the Elite Fleet, Delhi → Agra via the Yamuna Expressway (3h), Delhi → Jaipur via NH-48 (5h).
New York is a long crossing with a significant time shift. We build a firm first-night recovery into the architecture, orientation only, no marquee sites on arrival day. Sleep, light evening, breakfast at the stay, monuments from day two. On the ground, the Gommateshwara Statue is sequenced for the prime viewing window, hours: approx. 6 am to 6 pm, rather than dropped into a generic city sightseeing block.
Beyond the Gommateshwara Statue, Shravanabelagola sits inside the wider South India; we plan the trip end to end on a single chauffeured architecture.

The Gommateshwara, Bahubali, is one of the great sculptural feats of the ancient world: a 57-foot figure hewn from a single outcrop of granite around 981 CE, standing serene and unadorned on the summit of Vindhyagiri hill. It was raised by Chavundaraya, minister and general of the Western Ganga kings, and has drawn Jain pilgrims for over a thousand years. The Colossal Monolith of Bahubali
