To begin with this is a really really ancient temple located in the brahmagiri range bordering Karnataka. The exact date of foundation is unknown but what's known is that this place is known as the Kashi of the south. People come here to wash their sins away ,and be close to the Divine. Temple timings are morning till 12pm and evening 5.30-8pm. The temple has old architecture and the vibes feel so good here. I personally felt so uplifted out here ,surely something divine and positive . PS: people other then Hindu faith are not allowed inside the temple However they are free to enjoy the premises . There is lots of shopping around the temple footsteps I picked up some tea, ayurvedic herbs, honey ,soaps and what not for good price and premium quality (first shop down the steps) The ride to the temple is amazing and from a forest zones , chances of spotting the wild is very very high . Also recommended to travel in Your own transportation, as public transport in this side of the state is dull My humble request is to visit this place and feel good ;)…
