Badavi Linga Temple

This monolithic Siva Linga statue is 3 mt in height. The sanctum has no ceiling and the linga is constantly immersed in a water bed since a canal from the River passes through the temple. Water oozes out constantly from the foot level and always three feet deep. It is said that this temple was built by a poor woman. Badavi means Poor woman. It is believed that this temple exists from the period of the Vijayanagara Empire. This temple is located near to Ugra Narasimha Temple. This Linga was made of black stone. A close look at the Idol unveils three eyes on it.

The crowd will be high during Sivaratri festival days and Hampe Utsava.
