Bhoo Varaha Laxmi Narasimha Temple

The Archaeological Survey of India is looking after this ancient structure.

Halasi was called Palasika in ancient times and the Bhoo Varaha Laxmi Narasimha Temple is one of the best examples of the Kadamba style of architecture. The 50 feet tall tower of the inner shrine or garbhagruha is very similar to the Madhukeswar temple in Banavasi built by them.

According to historians, it was built during the Kadamba period or 5th century AD, and inscriptions inside the temple also support this. As per the records, it was built by Shivachitta. In 1169 AD, the deity of Ananta Viravikrama Narasimha installed by Matayogi.

According to a legend associated with this shrine, Pandavas built this temple overnight during their exile and worshiped Lord Vishnu here.

According to the temple priest, the two feet tall deity of Narasimha, on the left side of Vishnu, is swayambhu or udbhava and not sculpted by anybody.

Inside the temple

There are two garbhagruhas facing each other. In the right one is the four feet deity of Lord Shri Vishnu in a sitting posture. The deity of Suryanarayana and Mahalaxmi are just behind the main deity.

The garbhagruha on the left side has the deity of Bhuvaraha Swamy. In 1186-87, a 5 feet standing deity of Varaha was installed by Vijayaditya III. Lord Vishnu's Varaha avatar, where he carries Mother Earth (or Bhoodevi) on his tusk, can be seen. The beautifully carved lotus on the ceiling goes to prove that the Kadambas patronised and developed their own art form.

Just outside the main temple are smaller temples dedicated to Ganesha, Shiva and Vitthala. One fine statue of Radha Krishna can also be seen in a smaller shrine.{{cn|date=June 2016}}
