Hampi Virupaksha Temple – Guide

The Virupaksha Temple is a sacred place and historical site located on the banks of the Tungabhadra River in Hampi in the state of Karnataka. Due to the history and beautiful architecture of this temple, built during the seventh century, it was included in the UNESCO World Heritage Site. The walls of the temple also bear rich inscriptions dating back to the 7th century which bear testimony to its rich heritage. This ancient temple dedicated to Virupaksha, one of the forms of Lord Shiva, is also known as “Prasanna Virupaksha Temple”.

History of this Temple

The history of Hampi Virupaksha Temple dates back to around the seventh century. According to the Archaeological Survey of India, the Virupaksha Temple was built in the name of Vikramaditya II’s queen, Lokamahadevi, to commemorate the king’s success in a battle over the Pallavas of Kanchi. The construction of the Virupaksha temple at that time began as a small temple and was later developed into a huge complex during the Vijayanagara rule.

The original art, craft and culture of the temple flourished during the fourteenth century during the reign of the dynasty. But these beautiful architecture and creations were crushed and destroyed by the Muslim invaders. But even after the destruction of Hampi in 1565, the devotional cult of Goddess Pampa and Virupaksha did not end and the temple worship continued as is done even today. Extensive renovations were made to the temple in the early 19th century.
