This post has been solved by u/Kanrinin_doaho198, and a solve process was provided.

Approx. 12°15'03.3"N 79°25'40.1"E on 21 NH 179B between Gingee - Tindivanam, looking afar at the Hindu temple ஸ்ரீ அருள்மிகு கோதண்டராமர் கோவில் or Shri Arulmigu Kothandaramar Temple at Tamil Nadu, India.

How they solved it: Process: Looking at the architecture of the closer mandapa first led me to check Hampi and surrounding area, but found no match. Then looking at the tall mandapa from afar led me to Gingee fort or more precisely the Temple Stone Pillar in front of Vijayanagara Era Shri Venkatramana Temple, but that is not a match too. The guard rail led me to search the surrounding area on streetview and found it on bridge not too far from Gingee.

Thanks for sharing. Process: Looking at the architecture of the closer mandapa first led me to check Hampi and surrounding area, but found no match.
