Goravanahalli Mahalakshmi temple is one of the most sacred place for Hindus. Folks who cannot travel to Kolhapur mahalakshmi will follow this goddess with utmost discipline. The deity inside the temple is beautiful. Well maintained temple. Don't fall into false hopes and words of the poojaris of the adjoining temple where their main motto is to take money from you by telling some or the other stories.. Goravanahalli is around 100 kms away from Bangalore which has very good roads leading till the temple. It will be a beautiful drive across the rural parts of the Karnataka, lush green agricultural fields and adjoining the Savandurga Hillock. You can start Bangalore by around 7 in the morning, have breakfast on the Tumkur highway.. visit the temple around 10 and be back in Bangalore by 1-1.30.. good half day outing. Do visit the lake at Goravanahalli also.

Its worth visiting Mandaragiri Temple complex, the peacock feathered Guru Mandir has become the must visit place due to its popularity on Instagram. Climbing the hills with 432 steps is not everyone's cup of tea specially aged people. Once you are on top of the hill, the 360 degree view is just mesmerizing, you can always find teens or college students around this area

Sri ChannaKeshava Temple at Nagalapura is architecturally awesome and is a great example of Hoysala architecture. On the way from Turuvekere, once you hit the state highway, the deviation to Nagalapura can very easily be missed. There is a very small National heritage sign board just the entrance to the village road. The temples are about 5-6 kms inside. The temple complex and the main structure is being maintained by the ASI and it kept quite neat and clean.
