Sringeri Sharada Peetham, Hindu spiritual center in Karnataka, India

The temple complex stands on both banks of the Tunga River, featuring shrines dedicated to Goddess Sharadamba and Sri Adi Shankara.

Established in the 8th century by philosopher Adi Shankara, this institution became the first of four cardinal centers for preserving Hindu teachings.

The temple organizes regular Vedic ceremonies, Sanskrit education programs, and maintains an extensive collection of ancient manuscripts for scholarly research.

Visitors can attend morning ceremonies from 6:00 AM to 2:00 PM and evening ceremonies from 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM throughout the year.

The granite temple houses a golden idol of Goddess Sharadamba, installed above a sacred Sri Chakra pattern carved directly into the rock.
