Learn about Hoysala architecture when you visit Shweta Varahaswamy Temple. Walk through the exquisitely carved doorways and pillars. Prepare to be mesmerized by the artistic murals on the Navaranga. Chikka Devaraja Wodeyar was the benefactor for the temple. It has an interesting story of how he went as far as Tamil Nadu to get the stone image of the namesake of the temple. Mysore is filled with many such temples which will delight your eye.
