Veerabhadra Temple

About this place

Lepakshi is a “wow” stop for travellers who love art and architecture: richly painted ceilings, detailed stone carvings, and the famous open-pillared mandapas create a museum-like temple experience—yet it’s still a living place of worship. The atmosphere feels grand, artistic, and intensely photogenic.

History & highlights

The temple is closely associated with the Vijayanagara period and is widely discussed as a major monument of that era, celebrated for its murals and sculpted pillars. Its enduring fame comes from how well its art survived, preserving a vivid window into 16th-century Deccan temple aesthetics.
