I am interested in visiting this temple…can you give me a contact number or specific directions/landmark to reach this temple.

Is this the same temple where 5 shivalingas are present.

Thanks in advance
Amith

@ Jeet: thanks! sometimes we hardly glance at these kind of monuments little knowing the history behind them!

@ Kishore Murthy: thank you! homesick already? :)

@ Mridula: so true. and there is so much scope to make them sights to see, but i doubt the govt will do anything considering they can’t even get around to getting the roads fixed!

Wow! Such beauty of the temples and the one shrine really has a distinct shine to it! Beautiful. Unfortunately, though we pass along the same roads and places everyday, all we hear of is the busy traffic and the road conditions and seldom hear anything beyond that. This post has highlighted Begur in a different way. And its made me nostalgic too :(

Good findings. Have traveled via Begur road quite a number of times from Bannerghata road to Hosur road. Did saw a few temples and jam packed roads but an incredible history!
