Vishnu...Buddha...Vishnu...Buddha..smack!

One of the most amazing thing in all the temples is the switching of deities throughout the years. One king would build something as a Buddhist temple, and the next guy woulld come along and remove all the Buddhas and replace with lingas and statues of Brahma, or Vishnu. Then the next guy would decide to take the linga away and put a Buddha there. Eventually some of the temples just merged both, sitting side by side, interchangeable. Some of the Buddhas look Hindu, some of the Vishnus look Buddha-like. And in the end it doesn't seem to matter what is being worshippped....
