Day 1

Leave Bangalore at 6 AM through Nelamangala, Channarayapatna and Hassan, about 210 km and 4 hours to Halebidu. The twin-shrined Hoysaleswara Temple has rows of carved friezes running right round the base: elephants, lions, horsemen and scenes from the epics. A local guide brings the panels to life in about an hour.

Bangalore to Halebidu	About 210 km, 4 hours
Halebidu to Belur	About 16 km
Total for the day	About 450 km
Best time	October to March

A short walk from the main temple, three Jain basadis with polished black stone pillars that shine like mirrors. Few visitors come here, so it is quiet.

Lunch in Belur, then the temple of Chennakeshava, still in worship after nine hundred years. Look for the bracket figures of dancers under the roof edge and the Darpana Sundari, the lady with the mirror.

Drive back to Bangalore and vehicle fares

About 4.5 hours through Hassan. You reach Bangalore around 9 PM.
