Description: Incongruously situated on Airport Road, behind the Kemp Fort Shopping Mall is the massive Shiva Temple, built in 1994 and a surprisingly popular tourist spot in Bangalore. Entering the temple you’ll pass a large statue of Lord Ganesh, before coming face-to-foot with the massive ivory statue of Shiva, seated in yoga posture, towering 65 feet above the ground. Toss a coin in the wishing pond before the statue, or explore the Holy Cave behind the statue, home to twelve beautifully decorated Shiv Lingas.
