Melukote

Last weekend, I drove to Melukote. Melukote is a nice place, primarily known for it's temples. One of them being the Yoga Narasimha Swamy temple, which is on the Yadugiri hill. The view from the top floor of the temple is amazing. The evening sunset is a pleasant sight to witness. The temple is open all day on Sunday and on other days, it is closed for about 3 hours in the noon.

Directions from Bangalore:
On the Bangalore-Mysore highway, watch out for sign boards indicating Melukote, after crossing Mandya town, where you'll have to take a right to get into Pandavpura taluk. Melukote is about 35kms from the highway.
