Visiting Temples near Talakadu (Karnataka)

Kirthinarayana Temple
Talakadu is a famous picnic spot on the bank of river cavery. There are many ancient temples in Talakadu including Baidyanatheswar, Virabhadreswara, Pathaleswara, Maraleswar, Arakeswar, Mallikarjuna and Kirti Narayana temples. These pictures are taken in Kirti Narayana temple. This temple is half broken and submerged in sand. The level of sand around the temple is higher than the level of temple. The architecture of the temple is very attractive. The main temple is under repairing by the archeological department.

Talakadu is a famous picnic spot on the bank of river cavery. There are many ancient temples in Talakadu including Baidyanatheswar, Virabhadreswara, Pathaleswara, Maraleswar, Arakeswar, Mallikarjuna and Kirti Narayana temples. These pictures are taken in Baidyanatheswara (or Baidyeswara), Virabhadreswar and Arkeswar (5kms from Talakadu) temples.
Talkad boating
Boating on river kaveri is the most important attraction of Talakad. There are many coracles (round shaped boats made of canes) which are very different from the shape of boats at other places. Boating is really cheap, i.e., 20/- per head. We had a nice boating experience there. I requested the boatman and rowed the boat for some time. It was a thrilling experience to row the boat on the river.
