Virupaksha Temple




    Hemakuta Hills near the temple

    Hemakuta Hill is located to the south of Virupakha Temple.
    Hindus believe that bad spirit comes from south , and good spirit
    comes from north.
    So they will build their house with the main entrance facing north.
    In this case , there is no entrance to the Hemakuta Hill from inside
    Virupaksha temple. so we have to trek outside the temple to climb
    the hill.
