Somanathapuram Temple mysore
Situated in the unobtrusive village of Somanathpur, 35km
from Mysuru, the exquisitely carved, star-shaped temple with triple towers is a
perfect example of Hoysala architecture.
The friezes on its outer walls with their intricately cared rows of
caparisoned elephants, charging horsemen, and mythological birds and beasts
will leave you spellbound. Beautifully sculpted images of gods, godesses and
scenes from the epics, as well as the remarkable ornate celings in the pillared
hall take your breath away.
