Mysore Sree Muthappa Kshetram

The Keshava temple at Somanthapur, 35 km from Mysore, is an extraordinary temple built in the 13th CE during the reign of the Hoysala dynasty. It is one among the top 3 temples among the 92 built by Hoysalas during their reign. The temple is built on a star-shaped platform with high quality sculptures all around. The most prominent features of this temple are-the highly symmetric & geometric lathe-turned pillars; 16 ceilings inside the temple with each one different but with a motif of banana flower; exquisite statues of Venugopala & Janardhana in 2 of the 3 sanctum sanctora; the highly intact & ornate vimanas; 480 elephants carved on the bottom level with each one different from the other; a galaxy of gods & goddesses; etc. It took 500 artists about 40 years to build this temple which was later vandalized by the marauding Mughals in the 14th CE. It stands abandoned from a ritualistic perspective but stands tall as an artistic achievement. Its a 1 hour drive from here to Mysore palace.
