Situated near the famous
Manjunath Temple in
Dharmasthala, Bahubali Temple enshrines the monolithic statue of Bhagvan
Bahubali. The statue epitomizes renunciation, self control and subjugation of ego. The monolithic statue, 39 ft tall, is carved from a single stone with a pedestal 13 ft high.
To reach Dharmasthala, Mangalore is the nearest airport and railhead, 80 km away from the temple. Private taxis are also available every five minutes from Dharmasthala.
