Veerabhadra Swamy Temple, Lepakshi

What an amazing experience! This temple has a huge area with many temples surrounding the main Veerbhadra temple. This is 2.5 hrs drive away from Bangalore. It's a must visit for day trip. It's so peaceful and serene, especially in early morning. It's mostly open area so avoid visiting the temple during day time between 9AM and 4PM, especially in summer. If you come here early morning before 7AM, it's a better experience with no crowd and cool weather. There are monkeys and stray dogs around the temple, so don't carry eatables in your hands. Timings - 6AM to 6PM
