Bhoganandiswara: An ancient temple near Nandi Hills, Bengaluru



Bhoganandiswara is a 1200 year old Siva temple complex in the village of Nandi.Yeah you heard that right 1200. Its one of the most beautiful temples I have seen.It lies very close to the base of the hills.
The drive to the place was brilliant with the Sun God out to bless us along our way.We stopped at a dhaba first for breakfast and then drove to the temple.

The Intricate carvings and the design of the temple are brilliant. The most eye catching feature is a square pond in the temple complex which is considered holy.The square patterns make for a brilliant picture. just before the Hills. The great part is that the traditions are still followed in similar manner to how the used to be in in 800 odd AD.


The quitness and the feel of walking on ancient stone brings an ethereal sort of calm to you. That is one thing thats great about South India, it is full of these old and pretty temples all over.

Hope to keep exploring.God bless us all.
