• Veerabhadra Swamy Temple - Guests will be picked up from their hotel and taken directly to the Veerabhadra Swamy Temple in Lepakshi, Andhra Pradesh. This extraordinary 16th-century temple, constructed during the Vijayanagara Empire by governors Viranna and Virupanna under King Achyuta Deva Raya (brother of Krishna Deva Raya), is celebrated for its intricate carvings, magnificent ceiling frescoes, and the renowned hanging pillar that exemplifies architectural excellence.
• Lepakshi Bull - The next stop is the Lepakshi Bull Temple, situated approximately 200 meters from the main temple. This location boasts a colossal monolithic statue of Nandi, the mount of Lord Shiva, carved from a single granite block. Standing about 20 feet high and 30 feet long, it ranks among the largest Nandi statues in India and is exquisitely sculpted with detailed ornamentation.
• Lepakshi Jataayu - Following this, the journey continues to Jatayu Theme Park, which commemorates the courageous mythical bird Jatayu from the Ramayana. Legend has it that this is where Jatayu fell after bravely fighting Ravana to save Sita. The name ‘Lepakshi’ is believed to mean ‘Rise, bird!’—words spoken by Lord Rama to the injured Jatayu. The park features sculptures and themed exhibits that depict this noble episode from the epic.
• Big Bay India | Highway Pitstop - A lunch break will be taken at Big Bay India | Highway Pitstop, a popular and well-maintained food court along the highway. Here, guests can savor an authentic, traditional South Indian vegetarian lunch in a clean and comfortable environment. The freshly prepared meals include local specialties such as sambar, rasam, curd rice, and a variety of seasonal vegetables served with rice and crispy papad, providing a delightful taste of southern hospitality.
• Isha Foundation Chikkaballapura - The final destination is the Isha Foundation Center in Chikkaballapur, home to the impressive 112-foot bust of Adiyogi Shiva, recognized by Guinness World Records as the world’s largest bust sculpture. Founded by spiritual leader Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev, this tranquil center offers a space for inner well-being, yoga, and meditation. Nestled among scenic hills, the Adiyogi statue represents the source of yoga and stands as an inspiring spiritual landmark in Karnataka.
