Sri Chenna Kesava Temple in Belur is an architectural masterpiece under control of Archeological Department . A must one to see in Belur. It is one of the Hoysala Temple in the Belur Region. The sculptures and carvings are mind blowing, Can you Imagine? We can see the modern fashion details like hairstyle, jewellery designs there in the temple Sculptures which was constructed in the 12th Century, Mind Blowing. We were visited Belur Temple during our Chickmagalur Family Trip, Hired a Guide, Enjoyed lot. To know the history and details of sculptures there, atleast one should spend half day there, Hiring a guide will be better to know the details of the structure and temple.

We decided to stop here on way to Chikamagalur and we just fell in love with this temple. The stone carvings just blew our minds away. I wish Karnataka Tourism would market this as well Rome markets Colosseum or Greece markets Delphi. This place is so much better preserved and so much more beautiful than the Delphi or Acropolis or Colosseum or Pompeii Just 45 min from Hassan and open from sunrise to sunset - it can make a perfectly good day trip for Bangalore if you can start early in the morning.

The temple is on the hillock with breathtaking views around. Its a jain pilgrimage with large monolithic statue of lord gomateshwara( dedicated to Jain figure Bahubali), a arduous climb of 300+ steps to reach which is worth a visit. People with heart issues if visiting need to take this climb slowly and take care.

Belur is amazing and well worth a visit as the carving is wonderful. It ranks with place like Angkor Was and should be on more itineraries. Halebid is more inside detail and choose the former if pressed for time

Opens only once a year for around 15 days during deepawali. It is the main deity of city of Hassan. Expect very long queues for darshan.

Temple was another architecture wonder at its own level. Ofcourse you can't compare it with Belur or halebeedu. The priest comes to the temple after seeing visitors for doing pooja as he stays in opposite house. Overall had very nice dharshan of the lord. Parking will be a problem on crowded days.

Easy hike with multiple Jain temples. Lot of history. Last place of chandraguta maurya. Make sure to go to the cave besides the temple complex and meditate for 2-3 minutes. Feels good. You need to climb the hill without shoes - hence carry socks to save u from blisters!

The 700 steps barefoot climb to the summit is absolutely worth every drop of sweat ....the ancient temple on the top which houses the magnificent Bahubali is jaw dropping to say the least...one must take on the efforts to go to the top....worth every bit

Reviewed By 85ajaip - Bengaluru, India
The viewpoint is a must-visit if you are in and around Sakleshpura. I reached there on a Thursday and that too at around 9 am. So the place was not crowded only a Pre Wedding Photography was going on so there were only 5 or 6 people other than us. Any place which offers you a great view and brings you closer to nature should be experienced without much headcount and so my suggestion is to be early birds and watch the ghat view and cool your eyes. Kukke Subramanya temple if few odd kilometers drive from here. The viewpoint entry is bang on the main road so you won't miss it. Park your vehicle properly as the entry point is at a road curve.
