View of the Indian Rhino House from the SVR

Its an eyesore. I think it would have been better without the naff 'Indian temple' facade, just the green building. This view does show how unsympathetic development generally can spoil the look of the parkland too.
 
@Pertinax If anything, the facade ironically does little to hide the otherwise utilitarian holding area for the rhinos, which would have been decently hidden with planted berms, strategically placed logs and maybe some rocks.The temple's color is reminiscent of Rajasthan (the Jaisalmer fort, AKA Sonar Kella), and as far as I know, there are no rhinos in Rajasthan. (outside of any potential zoos). Regardless, this should be highlighted as to how NOT to build in a safari park.
