Akkana Basadi, Jain temple in Shravanabelagola, India
The Akkana Basadi temple features a standing statue of Parshwanatha beneath a seven-headed serpent canopy in the main sanctum of its single shrine structure.
Built in 1181 during the Hoysala empire reign of King Veera Ballala II, this temple was commissioned by Achiyakka, wife of minister Chandramouli.
The temple's architectural elements incorporate traditional Hoysala design with lathe-turned pillars, decorative reliefs, and sculptures of Dharnendra and Padmavati inside the vestibule.
The temple complex, protected by the Archaeological Survey of India, remains accessible to visitors through the southern entrance while the main structure faces east.
The temple's exterior maintains plain walls without decorations, contrasting with the detailed interior sculptures and the ornate relief depicting saints with attendants.
