Close to 1000 years, Chamundeshwari Temple is a famous hill temple in Mysore. The original temple was built during the Hoysalas period while the temple towers were built during the reign of the Vijayanagara Empire in the 17th century. This temple has a 15 feet bull statue around the 800th of the 1000 steps of the temple. From the 18th century, animal sacrifices have been stopped and are one of the 18 Maha Sakthi Peethas in the country. This Dravidian temple also hosts the deities of Lord Hanuman and Lord Ganesha. The popular Mahishasura Mardini statue is present in this beautiful temple and the best time to visit this temple is from October to December. People climb to the top of this temple using the 1000 steps the Woodeyar dynasty had constructed, to end all their sins and bad karma. 📸 @runa_nath Follow @indianpanorama Visit www.indianpanorama.in #STravelORIES #chamundeshwaritemple #templetuesday #templesofindia #templesoftamilnadu #templesofsouthindia #templesofkarnataka #secrettemples #indianpanorama #incredibleindia #temples #mysterioustemples #womentravel #travelphotography #travelgram #travelblogger (at Chamundeshwari Temple,Chamunda Hills,Mysore) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJ71GWjB-WY/?igshid=1xqvxmaba93cs
