FAQs On Kedareswara Temple

Belur, Karnataka, India
The Kedareswara Temple is a magnificent Hoysala era temple located less than a kilometer from the famous Hoysaleswara Temple. Built by King Veera Ballala II and his Queen Ketaladevi in 1219 CE, it is dedicated to Lord Shiva. This temple is often overlooked by tourists, making it a peaceful and quie t spot for exploration. It is a Trikutachala (three-shrine) temple, though the superstructures are now missing. The temple is built on a high platform called a Jagati, which follows a star-shaped plan. The carvings here are exceptionally fine, even by Hoysala standards, featuring smaller and more delicate details. The walls are adorned with figures of deities, dancers, and scenes from the Puranas. It represents a more refined and later style of the dynasty's architecture. The temple surroundings are lush and well-maintained by the ASI. Visiting this temple gives a sense of the intimate and spiritual atmosphere that once filled the capital city. It is a must-visit for those who appreciate detailed stonework without the heavy crowds of the main temple.
