Another oldie, the Halasuru Someshwara Temple too dates back to the Chola period. It was however extensively renovated during the days of the Vijayanagar Empire. A colourful gopuram greets you at the entrance. And, inside, you’ll encounter intricately done pillars. There are also sculptures that you should watch out for; like the one that depicts Lord Shiva’s and Parvati’s wedding. And the one where Goddess Durga conquers Mahishasura.
