Sri Chandramouleshwara Temple - Hindu temple in Channarayapatna - Hassan, India

South India's only temple has a standing idol of Shiva in the form of Chandramouleshwara. And has high positive vibes.

Only statue of Lord shiva which is built before 800 years. The incident diety bedara kannada offering his eyes to Lord shiva can be witnessed here and you may observe one eye of bedara kannappa is on the right feet of Lord (Chandramoulishwara )shiva . Parvathi devi idol also built according to arsheya style and beautiful ganesha is the attractive one in the temple. The temple is under govt of karnataka however the main priest poojya saraswati samman awardee Bhalakrishna bhat taking a well care of the temple and he is the main attraction by his style of pooja. Plz do visit once and experience the immense eternity of Lord Shiva.

This is the only standing Shiva in the whole world! ! Bramha Ratotshava on 1st February

Temple is ok , but pujari are worst , they close temple before 9.30am , as it is rare temple at least they have to keep it open atleast 11.30 am.

The Chandramouleshwara temple in Channarayapattana is about 900 years old. There is a Moorat (Idol) of Lord Shiv in the Garbhagudi. That is extremely rare. Most Shaivaite temples have a Shiva-Ling in the Garbhagudi. The Idol, is beautifully carved

Nice temple to worship Lord Chandra Mouleshwara and Goddess Parvathi, Venkata Ramana swamy at the same place... Temple perform car temple festival every year on last Monday of karthika masam.

The temple was closed, at 11am, so had to go back disappointed

It's an interesting place for its the only or one of very few places where Lord Shiva's idol is established.
