Star of the day...
Carvings on 'Manastambha'... Best Manastambha I have seen till date...
1st temple at Kunigal (Tumkur District)....
4th Temple at Bidre (Tumkur District)...
Temple wall is 8 feet wide...
The carvings on one of the 9 small domes in the central section of the temple...
Packing up for the day...
Columns of the main old temple...
Attracted by the water, we got close... real close...
Pravin...
Road going towards the top... Wrong way, we then took the other side to reach the top...
View from the Dam wall...
And got really worse...
'Manastambha' at N. R. Pura......
Waiting at a junction to find the road ahead for Melgi... It was real pain to find directions for Melgi... Deserted roads and you have no option than to wait at each place where you have more than one option to chose between roads...
Temple at Melgi...
Carvings on 'Manastambha'...
Must have burned lot of clutch during the climb!!!
Lord Parswanath monolith... All carved out of single stone...
View from the top...
Our bed... for the night... one ours, one borrowed...
Early morning... A quick bath in chilled water from the well on top... And ready for prayers at the temple...
Thats where we spend the night...
Pravin-swapsshah... self timer click...

Other Idols at the temple...
Taking cover from rain on the way to next temple at Shirlal...
y
'Mulnayak' Lord Mahavir...
Idols from other temple (now demolished) in Kerevashe are now kept in the temple...
Early morning at Mahavir Temple...
Lord Anantnath Temple at Bajaguli...
Lord Mahavir Samavasharan Temple...
On reaching Karkal... Near Bahubali Pravachan Mandap...
'Nandishwar dweep' 52 Idols...
It was like going in the jungles...
Finally reached... The expressions say it all!!!
And the grand temple in there...
Pravin... Got it!!! Finally this one is down the list...
But found the 'Purohit' in the village after lot of searching and got him back to the temple to open it for us...
Pravin climbing down the stairs...
On the way to 29th temple at Mudkunje (Peribethu) Temple...
Getting up this slope was good, but getting down was really scary... especially cause now it was dark, dense jungle and no one around...
Started early morning... sharp at 6:15... And this was the worst thing to happen... All the roads in the jungles, around villages were excellent and this state highway was just pathetic...
Again the expressions say it all...
waiting for the Engine to cool...
The only break during the 7.5 hrs non-stop journey was this one!!! A 2 min Coconut water break...
