Inside Mysore Palace Grounds, Mysore, Karnataka

Built in the loving memory and under the patronage of Jayachamaraja Wodeyar in 1951, the Bhuvaneswari Temple serves as a beacon of the divine feminine right in the northern embrace of the Mysore Palace. Crafted meticulously in the Dravidian architectural style, the temple is a testament to the skilled hands of Shilpi Siddalingaswamy, who carved the main idol of Goddess Bhuvaneswari with such grace that her eyes seem to bless every devotee who looks upon her.
