Lakshmi Narasimha Temple, Bhadravathi, Hindu temple in Bhadravathi, India.

The temple features three sanctums connected by a central hall, with intricate carvings adorning the outer walls and lathe-turned pillars supporting the ceiling.

Built during the early 13th century under Hoysala ruler Vira Someshwara, the temple incorporates soapstone construction and traditional Vesara architectural elements.

The temple walls display detailed reliefs depicting deities from Vaishnavism, Shaivism, and Shaktism traditions, including Ganesha, Dakshinamurti, and Sarasvati.

Located 255 kilometers from Bangalore and 20 kilometers from Shimoga, visitors can reach the temple through regular bus services or train connections.

The structure stands on a raised platform called jagati, which serves as the circumambulation path instead of the traditional inner pradakshinapatha arrangement.
