Sri Panchalingeswara Temple, Hooli, Karnataka..
.
Architecture of the Hooli Panchalingeshwar Temple is to be adored. It is a protected monument and is under the control of Archeological Survey of India. Earlier people during summer used to rest in the shade of this temple. Though the temple is made of stone, it is unbelievably cool even during the scorching summer.
There are other temples such as Agastheswarar Temple, Sangameswara Temple. ASI carried out renovation work using cement and this created a huge controversy among historians and the work was stopped.
Let us hope good sense prevails and all the structures are restored to their original glory.
Hooli is at 477 Kms from Bangalore near Dharwad. All the buses plying to Nargund from Dharwad goes to Hooli.
