Dedicated to Lord Shiva, the Kaadu Malleshwara Temple has been standing since the 17th century, it is said. One of the oldest temples in the city, many believe that it was built by the Marathas. However, it’s architecture is unmistakably Dravidian, complete with an intricate gopuram {the tower at the entrance of the temple}. Do visit during the annual-festival Shivaratri when the temple is at its vibrant best.
