Kollur Mookambika Temple, Hindu temple in Kollur, Karnataka, India

The Mookambika Temple stands on the banks of the Souparnika River, featuring a main shrine with a swayambhu linga divided by a golden line.

The temple construction was completed in 800 CE under King Halugallu Veera Sangayya, incorporating elements of Dravidian, Vijayanagara, and Hoysala architectural styles.

The temple celebrates two major festivals: Rathotsava during Phalguna month and Navaratri in Ashwin, drawing thousands of devotees from neighboring states.

The temple opens at 5:00 AM with Nirmalya Pooja, followed by three daily prayer sessions, and maintains a strict dress code requiring full-length clothing.

The central deity features a distinctive bisected linga, with the left side representing the Tridevi goddesses and the right side depicting their Trimurti consorts.
