This beautiful marvel is situated at a height of 4312 meters and is known for its stunning landscape. It is thus often called, the “Ooty of Andhra”

Hola IBR Bengaluru!!!

Let’s gear up for the May Day ride 2025 on Sunday – 11th May. We will be riding to Sri Venugopalaswamy Temple Mysore.

Google Maps: Sri Venugopalaswamy Temple

https://g.co/kgs/bfrE6pn

About Sri Venugopalaswamy Temple Mysore:
The Venugopala Swamy Temple located at Hosa Kannambadi, near Krishna Raja Sagara, is an example of Hoysala architecture in Karnataka. This temple was built in the 12th century AD around the same time as the Chennakesava Temple at Somanathapura. The architecture is simple yet profound, a testament to balance and harmony. Each detail, from the worn stone pathways to the delicate lanterns, is thoughtfully placed, inviting contemplation rather than spectacle. Nature and structure blend seamlessly.
