Unchalli Falls

Reviewed By anils773 - Bengaluru, India

Superb waterfalls a real hidden gem. If you are able to google locate it, the effort will be worthwhile. The falls are magnificent. But the trek from the starting point till the first view point is 500mts with 300 steps. View is breathtaking. If you are fit enough you can traverse further down with another 300 steep steps to behold the fantastic natural beauty A must visit. Please be aware that there are no eating joints or watering holes or restrooms at this place. So be advised accordingly.

Shri Kshetra Manjuguni

Reviewed By ManeeshShanbhag

Very ancient temple dedicated to Lord Venkateshwara. Located 23 kms from Sirsi. Temple closes at about 1pm in the afternoon and reopens only by 4pm so please ensure you either reach before or after. 1pm onwards clean anna prasad is served to all who visit the temple. The diety is supposed to be a "udbhava murty" and a great Saint during the 9th century was gifted this due to his meditational powers. Some say this is the moola vigraha meaning the one and only source of the form of the Lord and all other deities were cloned from this form including the one at Tirupati. On the day of Manjuguni rathotsava sometime near Ugadi festival the main temple in Tirumala is closed and believed that venkateshwara will visit this template on that day. Must visit. Beautiful temple well maintained and very clean. Must visit and you will love this place surrounded by greenery.

Marikamba Temple

Reviewed By Departure710435 - Nashik District, India

If you visit Sirsi, you cannot afford to miss this old temple dating back to 1688. Durga in the form of Doddamma.She has 8 shoulders. They used to sacrifice a buffalo here till Mahatma Gandhi led a movement against it. The bi annual Jatra is attended by phenomenal crowds. The outside facade is new and reminds one of the Goan temples. But inside is still the old construction. You can tickets for the puja before you go inside. It is crowded inside. Outside there is a smaller temple where once you pray you are not supposed to look back.
