I've visited this temple when I was studying in school . It had great experience and rated as one of the most visited places in Bangalore.

But it has changed a lot during mine recent visit , only the entrance is free and rest you have pay fee . This is not at all a kannadigas culture. I think this is managed by some north Indians.

And whole lot of business inside the temple selling books , CD's ,snacks inside a temple. Its really losing its authenticity. I never thought of such a business oriented temple in Karnataka.

1 star is not for the temple . Its for the management for changing temple.
Hope some rules applies to it and it becomes the way as it was earlier. With in a 1 Km radius Chokkanathaswamy temple is located . I was suggest everyone to visit.
