Being an Indian and also from the state of Kerala, it has clicked in my thoughts many times the similarity between the Japanese temple architecture and that of Kerala. It looks almost same to me. How this similarity came? Japan and Kerala in India are far away. Surprisingly, the temple and house architecutre in Kerala is only similar to that of Japanese. Kerala architecture differs very much from other parts of India, even with in the South Indian states.
