"Very nice place to visit. Clean, green and peaceful environment. Staff are well behaved. Meditation, Aarti, Pooja etc here. Evening is good time to visit with family. Situated at good location near to main road or market. Cool atmosphere."
Not suitable to visit often, since for each visit, pooja and other small small rituals the charges are expensive. Mobile can be carried for taking photos.
Rs 150 entry free compulsory for everyone for darshan & puja but quite nice place
The aura inside the temple is good but they are charging fee of random amount(negotiating) to enter inside the temple which was disappointing
It is a nice temple. The only annoying thing in the temple is that the temple Management ppl sit every 50mtrs to sell tickets. I did not get a spiritual feel as it seemed more like a market place. Tickets to visit 2 statues and 2 caves, darshan tickets, direct darshan tickets etc etc... Every temple would have revenue stream, pls keep at one place with signage, keeping sales people inside temple spoils the spirituality of the place..
Must visit if your in bangalore
Beautiful temple
Awesome place to connect with spirituality. Ticket 150 to perform all rituals. Worth well managed. Dont go by why temple is charging money coz its very well managed by 100 of volunteers. Free entry is also there. But only darshan is available in that. Spend some time sit and meditate to get the feeling.
Nice place to visit but the entry fees is 150.it became a tourist place more than a spiritual place
Everything is scam, artificial, fake and unauthentic ...well we have better temples in our country don't we? I am just surprised we just in tag god and everything sells, everyone buys...people have over hyped this place. I will never visit again, don't recommend it, disappointed.
Temple is nice and peaceful.. But more money they r charging.. You can go by general or special entry.. General entry is Rs. 150 per head..( included caves?)Special is Rs 250 per head..( included caves) In special entry senior citizens and children below 5 years free..
Temple was good. But they are money minded.. no free darshan, though it says free. You are forced to Pay to enter the premises
A good temple where we can feel the reality of shiva god.
But why I don't know they made it a paid temple if they made it paid then there should be no hundi but it is paid and hundi is also kept.
Here we can experience all types of shivalinga situated in India.one of the best thing is here is one big shiva statue which is toooo good.There are also book stall of god's book,where you can buy band book and read....
Must visit temple since it gives a new experience when compared to a normal Temple
Most beautifully made it. Different ritual activities. many people say that they are thugs and looting money. Let me clear that there is no entry required for visiting this Temple. If you want special darshan or perform pooja, you will be asked to pay.
Statue of Lord Shiva is really good... But this place is too much commercialized
I'm very interested.... impressive.... good experience
A must visit place if u are in BLR first time!! U can go with family friends anyone!! Parents would love to visit this place
Highly commercial.one time visiting is recommended in odd timing and season.
The special entrance is a must try to experience the miniature jyotirlinga temples replicated beautifully inside a cave-like structure through which one has to walk. The various other poojas that can be done alomg with seem highly mechanised. To each his own!
The temple is very commercialised and doesn't have the peace which temples usually have....By mistake we purchased the ticket for Rs 500/- asthey didn't tell us that we could enter without the ticket as well.....
The overall experience was not pleasant
The only thing is there is a big statue of lord siva.. l felt this is a money looting centre.. l didn't get any refreshment or self satisfaction to visit this place..
One of the best artificial place I visited ever in Bangalore
Temple is good temple. But not for middle class and poor peoples. They are asking money for each andeverything. Even for Pooje too. Without money you can't take Darshana of lord Shiva. Now a day's this temple is becomes one of commercial complex. Inside the temple premises you can see many commercial items too. In a life time one time can visit this temple that's all.
Shiva statue is breathtaking. Once you cross all the hurdles of people trying to sell tickets for special darshan you will actually like the temple. Remember if just want to see Shiva big statue and don't really wish to see all small statue kept in tunnel like set up don't pay anything. Just keep saying everyone who are trying to sell tickets that you are here for free darshan. Evening Aarti is quite good but very long. They give deepa to everybody for the Aarti for free.
Nice place to visit, tall statue of lord Shiva and Ganesha mesmerises you. All jothirlingas at one place gives you divine feeling.
It's good time to spend with family but more than worship,it's for putting various abhishekas and performing new rituals. The entry cost is 250 rs per person . One of the must visit places in Bangalore to take your family
The overall experience was amazing, but management should take care specially at the time of shivratri, the gufa for entrance was so so so conjusted, that everyone was literally bathing in sweat. No fan, no exhaust, no ventilation at most of the part of the entrance. Fully covered with cardboard sheets. However after coming out of that area, looking at the tallest statue of lord shiva makes you forget everything.
Looks good but inside for darshan they will collect money from the devotees
It's totally commercialized place. I never expected that. I went there last Saturday and they asked us 150 each instead of free written there. At least in name of god, you should be careful. Don't do any fancy things or commercial. Otherwise there will be no one left to buy yours tickets/ideas.
I love this Temple but now days it looks like more commercialized.
This is a more like a tourist destination. It really makes our mood happy.
Great artificial monuments are there to see
Good place for knowledge
It's a money looting temple Unlike other Lord Shiva temples. Don't waste your money and time.
Place is good. But they are running a templr for business. If you pay 250Rs you can easily go inside. If you don't want to pay then they will.make you walk a lot. Even when temple is not at all crowded.
Pure business of spirituality. Waste of money. Please don't go if you are a true believer. go to some real temples if you want . It's totally artificial creation to seap money out of your pockets. Be ware.
This is good for one time visiting. You will feel good here. However, most commercial temple in the Bangalore. Basically, this is not a temple. Beaware, ask the tickets Rs 50 for entry only. Otherwise they will give you Rs.150 per head. If you are going there for pray purpose.
Nothing but just money game. 150 you need to pay just for darshan. Business in the name of religion!
Lord shiva statue in Middle of temple is great. Can spend good time in front of the statue.
Awesome temple.. There can find 12 jyotirling as well..
An beautiful shiva temple.
The shiva statue is large and is in open.
If looks amazing when it rains.
There is also a large Ganesha statue.
Extra ticket is to be taken for 12 jyotirlings.
Hmmm..Where to start?
I have mixed reviews about this place.
First of all it is not clearly visible from the road. For the entry gate look besides the Kemp fort mall entry.
Now after entering the gate, there will be a nearly suffocating passage to the temple inside. If it is a weekend or a crowdy day, be prepared to wait for some time in the queue inside that narrow passage.
Shiva statue is too good and looks so divine and energy rediating in the morning and evening times.
Aarti in the evening is so goosebumps giver.
Note: The management should focus on the convenient of the devotees and stop doing the commercialization of the spirituality.
Good place for going out with family. Shiva idol is the attraction. Ohm Namah Shivay!!
Om namah shivaay. It's best to stand out and chant this mantra rather than going inside this temple behind the mall. People here like other temples are greedy for money. Senseless management has only one Q for general darshan which is free and other for special which is how special I don't care... u need to have 2 queues so that person is not forced to take special paid darshan after spending so much of time in q. Going for free or paid darshan is a devotees choice, u cannot force that upon them. Shameless people. N then inside for everything there is a ticket paid service. Nothing free. I was wondering did I come to temple or some fkin govt office. In sometime from now they might even charge money for teertha.... the holy water...
They charge entry fees. They are making people fool
