Venugopala Swamy Temple is a majestic temple, dedicated to Lord Krishna and sited at the vicinity of the beautiful backwaters of KRS. After it was displaced due to inundation, it was reconstructed at its current location. The temple, an exemplar of the Hoysala architectural style, contains carvings in stone and fine sculpted structures. Beautiful gardens enclose the temple premises, while people feel mesmerised due to its peaceful ambience and beautiful waters. Carvings, which include pictures depicting the incidents of Hindu mythology, are intricately embedded in the walls of the temple.Location: Hosa Kannambadi, KRS Backwaters, MysuruPrice: Free entryTiming: 9:00 AM – 5:30 PMBest Time to Visit: October to FebruaryThe quiet ambience offers a calm surrounding for relaxation and meditation.
