The Story Behind DevalayaKarnataka
A community-powered mission to document every temple across Karnataka's 31 districts.
Our Mission
Karnataka is home to over 30,000 temples spanning 2,000 years of history — from ancient Hoysala masterpieces to remote Gramadeevata shrines in villages that have never been documented. DevalayaKarnataka was born from a simple question: "Why isn't there a single, comprehensive resource for every temple in Karnataka?"
We're building that resource — crowd-sourced by devotees, researchers, and travellers who share our passion for Karnataka's sacred heritage. Every temple entry includes GPS coordinates, pujari contacts, pooja timings, facilities, and bilingual descriptions in Kannada and English.
Every Temple Matters
From grand gopurams to village shrines — if it exists, it belongs here.
