(Clicked on Mobile) Chennakesava temple  at Belur, Karnataka. The temple was built during the regime of the Hoysala king Vishnuvardhana and completed or commissioned (as debated by historians) in 1117CE to commemorate an important victory in 1116 CE. It marks the apogee of the Hoysala art and architecture along with the temples at Halebidu and Somanathapura. The presiding deity Chennakesava (Handsome  Kesava = Krishna)  is one of the many forms of Lord Vishnu. Elaborate carvings and sculptures with minute details embellish the walls of the temple and are a sight to behold and represents the pinnacle of artistic and cultural accomplishments of the Hoysala Empire that reigned from the 11th centuryto 14th century CE largely in present day Karnataka, India. #hoysala #hoysalaarchitecture #hoysalatemple #belurtemple #chennakeshavatemple #insta_india #ig_indiashots #ig_india #instakarnataka #dekhoapnadesh #indiatourism #ourcultureourpride #nammakarnataka #hindutemple #indiantemples #karnataka #karnatakafocus #templearchitecture #indianmonuments #monumentsofindia #historicalplace #karnatakaworld #incredibleindiaoffical #discoverindiamagazine #travelindiagram #historicalplace #instatravelgram #heritagesite #travelindia #india_pixelz #indiaclick (at Channakeshwara Temple) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnWK5TPAV8q/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
