Kurudumale Ganpati Temple
Kurudumale Ganpati Temple Is Situated In The Kolar District Of Karnataka, India, Is Known For Its Ganesha Temple Built By A Vijayanagara Kings. A Huge Ganesha Idol Is Being Worshipped From Ages Unknown. It Is Said That The Ganesha Statue Was Being Worshipped In An Open Field, Until Krishnadevaraya Built A Temple Around It. Its Too Huge To Imagine (14ft In All), Bigger Than The Dodda Ganesha Of Basavanagudi.

This Place Was Believed To Be The Place Where Devas Would Descend From The Heavens For Recreation On Earth. The Ganesha Temple Is Considered To Be Very Powerful. Many People Start New Jobs Or New Work Only After Taking The Blessing Of Lord Ganesha.
