Lakshmi-Narayana Temple, Adagooru, Belur Taluk Hassan District.





This is a village 8 Km from Halebeedu towards Hassan city. A Lakshmi-Narayana Temple exists here, but the deity is known by the name Vadaga Narayana. This is a Trikootachala, Lakshmi-Narayana idol being in one of them and a Sarswathi in another. Though there is a Venugopal idol in the other Sanctum, it is very unlikely to have been the original idol. The navaranga is attractive. There are no wall sculptures on the outside. A beautiful pinnacle looks elegant on the top.
