Sri Dharmaraya Swamy Temple
Sri Dharmaraya Swamy Temple, located in Nagarathpete, Bengaluru, Karnataka, is one of the city's oldest and most unique temples. Built over 800 years ago by the Thigala community, the temple is dedicated to the Pandavas and their consort Draupadi from the Mahabharata, making it the only temple in India to honor these figures as deities.
Its architecture reflects a blend of styles from the Western Ganga, Pallava, and Vijayanagara dynasties, with a striking Dravidian-style gopuram (entrance tower).
The temple is renowned for hosting the annual Karaga Festival, a grand celebration dedicated to Draupadi, symbolizing her strength and femininity. This festival, one of Karnataka's oldest, features a vibrant procession led by a priest carrying the "Karaga," a decorated clay pot, on his head.
