  • Beluru Shri Chennakeshava Swamy Temple
    The driver will meet you at the Reception/lobby at the appointed hour. He will then drive you to Belur giving a toilet break in between. You can watch wonderful countryside on the way - rice fields, coconut trees, sugarcane fields, hills, water bodies, village life, etc. You can stop by almost anywhere to take pics.
  • The extraordinary Channakeshava temple of Belur was built in the 12th CE by Vishnuvardhana who was the greatest king of the Hoysala dynasty. The Hoysala dynasty ruled from 10th to 14th Century AD. They were largely contemporary of Cholas of Tamil Nadu. Vishnuvardhana built the Belur temple to commemorate two things - victory over the Chola king as well as conversion from Jainism to Vaishnavism. From Belur, it takes about 2 hours of drive to arrive at Shravanabelagola.
  • We visit a local coffee plantation in the outskirts of Beluru and appreciate the story of Coffee in the area. We will also witness a few spices grown in the area.
  • Shravanabelagola
    Shravanabelagola, literally meaning 'the white pond of the jain monk', houses the tallest monolithic statue in the World. It was carved out by a monolithic block of stop atop the Vindhyagiri in 983 AD by Chavundaraya, a Jain follower of the region. Sharavanabelogola is the most important Jain pilgrimage centre in South India. Bangalore is about 3 hours drive from Shravanabelagola.
