Somnathpur Temple

Reviewed By NS124

This temple is a must see for all who visit Mysore! The architecture and carvings are well maintained. Make sure to have a local tour guide who is able to speak upon the details of the carvings along the outer walls & within the sanctum; because those details help to put this temple into its historical context as well as provide a greater understanding & appreciation for key figures in the Hindu faith.
