(*)The Chennakesava Temple:
           Also known as Chennakeshava Temple or Keshava Temple, is a Vaishnava Hindu temple situated in Somanathapura, Karnataka, India, near the banks of the River Kaveri. It was consecrated in 1258 CE by Somanatha Dandanayaka, a general of the Hoysala King Narasimha III. 

Located about 38 kilometers east of Mysuru city, the temple is a prime example of Hoysala architecture.

The temple is surrounded by a courtyard and features a pillared corridor with small shrines (some damaged). 
The central temple is located on a high star-shaped platform and contains three symmetrical sanctums (garbha-griha), arranged in a square matrix measuring 89' x 89' and aligned along the east-west and north-south axes. 

The missing western sanctum housed a statue of Kesava, the northern sanctum housed Janardhana, and the southern sanctum housed Venugopala, all different forms of Vishnu. These sanctums are connected by a shared community hall (sabha-mandapa) adorned with numerous pillars.

The temple's outer walls, inner walls, pillars, and ceiling are intricately carved with depictions of Hindu theological iconography. 

The carvings include extensive friezes featuring scenes from Hindu texts such as the Ramayana (southern section), the Mahabharata (northern section), and the Bhagavata Purana (western section of the main temple).

The Chennakesava Temple is considered a pinnacle of the Hoysala temple style and stands out for its unique features, according to George Michell, a noted scholar of Indian architecture.
