Superb place for history lovers. It is an enclosed area consisting of numerous temples. Clubbed it as a single day trip with Badami and Aihole. Just managed. Looking back I should have kept 2 days for these three places.

The fort and temple are a must visit, if you are in Badami.. most of the visitors miss this as the focus is always on the Badami caves.. and the fort is quite opposite to the caves on the other side of the lake. The views from the fort are good and the temples are amazing. I suggest to visit the caves as first thing in the morning, which can be covered in 2-hours and then walk across the lake to reach the Bhoothnath Temple complex, Museum and Fort.

Mallikarjuna temple, mid-8th-century Shiva temple, sponsored by queen Trailokya Mahadevi is one of the big temples in Pattadakal Complex. Temple has many similarities to neighbouring Virupaksh Temple which is built in the same era. Carving of dancing Shiva, Purana stories, Mahabharata stories, Panchatantra stories can be seen on the walls of mallikarjun temple. They used carvings for storytelling which is very impressive. This temple is must visit place in pattadakal tour.
