Jalakantesvara Temple

The Jalakantesvara Temple, a gem of late Vijayanagar architecture, dates from around 1566, and was once occupied as a garrison. Check out the small, beautifully detailed sculptures – especially the leaping yali – on the walls and columns of the marriage hall in the southwest corner.
