Everyone knows this down temple. But near 500 meter in a hill a shiva temple is there. There a small sunai [water stream] a big fish [matchamuni] fed by people. About 900 steps to climb up to the temple. Ohm Namashiviya

This is one of the 6 Arupadi temple. No proper place for car parking. Even it's free for chappel stand, staff is expecting some amount for chappel stand. Inside temple there are 2 separate queues, one queue for 50rs paid queue and another one is free. Near main god the crowd is mixed and no staff is there to maintain the queue. Near outside lot of water and it's too slippery. Outside temple lot of hotel are there. We tried breakfast in Komathi villas, Very reasonable price and taste is too good. Must try.

Temple is really neat and clean. You will get the divine feel here. Amazing place to visit

A very nice and calm place to visit. I really like this temple, I would highly recommend to stay for some time in this temple atleast 30 to 50 mins.

No crowd on Sunday morning We use the free dharshan queue, which takes 15 minutes to complete; however, on busy days and on any special occasions, you must purchase a 100 rupee ticket for speed dharshan. Parking is not a problem because the surrounding area of the temple has numerous parking lots. Anywhere outside, we park two-wheelers.
