Banashankari Amma Temple

Visit the iconic Banashankari Amma Temple, a unique spiritual hub on Kanakapura Road famous for its unconventional traditions. Unlike most Hindu temples, devotees here offer prayers during Rahukala, lighting oil lamps in carved lemon peels to seek the Goddess protection. The vibrant temple atmosphere and the massive annual Jatre fair showcase the deep-rooted local culture. It is a fascinating destination for travelers looking to experience the distinct and powerful rituals of Karnataka.
