Shree Sharavu Mahaganapathi Temple - Hindu temple in Mangaluru - Dakshina Kannada, India

A lovely temple with some beautiful architecture, this temple is located in the heart of the city. I happened to visit here on the day of Saraswati Pooja, it was mildly crowded, but most of the devotees were there to get the pooja done for their vehicles. The temple in itself is a calm place to spend some time. The quadrangle is relatively small, so pradakshinas would not take much time.

Located in core of Mangalore city this place is of the famous temple in Mangalore. This temple has gudi for lord Shiva and Ganapathi.

Sharavu Mahaganapathi temple is a 800yr old temple dedicated to Lord Shiva & Lord Ganesha. Sharavu is derived from the word Shara which means arrow. Sharavu temple was built by a Tulu king, Veerabahu to erase the terrible sin caused by killing a cow instead of a tiger. Shivalinga installed here is known as Sharabeshwara. Images of Dhashabhuja Mahaganapathy (Ganapati with 10 hands) with Siddhilaxmi seated on his left, appeared on the southern wall. Since then it came to be known as Sharavu Mahaganapathi temple.
