A beautiful Architecture and built landscape with very big lawn in front of the temple.

Travel Advise: First Visit this temple before going to the top of Nandi hills as this more beautiful than Nandi Hills top. Top of the Nandi Hills is crowded with so many vehicles parked on top and it is absolute traffic JAM. Never will get the feel you are in nature and top of hill touching the clouds.
Unless the tourism department does not take action to stop vehicles going to the top of the hills, the nature will exhaust it's beauty soon.
Never Eat food in hotels located at the foot hills, worst food and service will get. Before going good to check their rating in google.
