What you'll do

We explore this 16th century masterpiece of Vijaynagara style of architecture
First in line is the section called Mukha Mandapa which served as the venue for dance and other cultural activities. We then visit the Artha Mandapa where the King did his worship and where the Garbha Griha houses the deity. What follows is a unique wedding hall made from grey sandstone with 38 carved monolithic pillars where Lord Shiva and Lady Parvati were supposed to have got married in antiquity!
