Detail InformationEdit
Lord Srikanteshwara Temple, Nanjangud is a good place to simply find oneself immersed in the mystical presence of the Almighty. Of utter significance is the architecture at large and the miniature varieties of architectural styles typical of the South Indian style of temples. The temple is dedicated to the Lord who drank the poison out of the “samudra manthan” to save the human race from the catastrophes that were to fall on them otherwise.
