Saavira Kambada Basadi
The Saavira Kambada Basadi, also known as the Thousand Pillar Temple, is a renowned Jain temple located in Moodabidri, Dakshina Kannada, Karnataka. Built in 1430 by the local chieftain Devaraya Wodeyar, the temple is dedicated to the Jain Tirthankara Chandraprabha.
The temple is famous for its 1000 intricately carved pillars, each unique in design, which support the structure. The temple complex also features a 50-foot tall monolith pillar called the Manasthamba, which is a common feature in Jain temples.
The temple's architecture is a blend of Dravidian and Vijayanagara styles, with elaborate carvings and sculptures that showcase the artistic skills of the craftsmen of that era. The inner sanctum houses an eight-foot idol of Chandraprabha Swami made of panchadhatu (a combination of five metals). The temple is considered an architectural marvel and is a major attraction for visitors to Moodabidri.
