Overview
Nanjangud is a temple town in Karnataka's Mysuru district, known as 'Dakshina Kashi' or the Kashi of the South, located approximately 650 km from Mumbai. The drive follows NH48 through Pune and Belgaum, then continues through Bangalore towards Mysuru before reaching Nanjangud, taking around 10-11 hours, making it one of the more accessible pilgrimage destinations on this route from Mumbai. Nanjangud is centred around the Sri Srikanteshwara Temple, an enormous and historically significant Shiva temple complex built over centuries by successive dynasties including the Cholas, Hoysalas, Vijayanagara rulers, and the Wodeyars of Mysuru, resulting in a rich blend of architectural styles within a single sprawling complex. The temple sits on the banks of the Kapila (Kabini) river, and its scale, intricate carvings, and towering gopuram draw pilgrims from across South India, particularly during major festivals. The town's reputation as 'Dakshina Kashi' stems from its deep association with Shiva worship, considered by devotees to hold similar spiritual significance to Varanasi in the south. Beyond the temple, Nanjangud's proximity to Mysuru city, roughly 25 km away, makes it easy to combine with a visit to Mysuru Palace, Chamundi Hills, and other well-known attractions in the region. Given its moderate distance and relatively comfortable single-stretch drive from Mumbai, Nanjangud works well both as a focused pilgrimage trip and as an add-on to a broader Karnataka itinerary. Miles Tours and Travels offers outstation cabs for this route and can help combine Nanjangud with nearby Mysuru sightseeing in the same trip.

The Srikanteshwara Temple has origins dating back over a thousand years, but the current structure was largely built and expanded by the Mysore Wodeyar kings in the 17th-18th centuries. The temple is closely associated with the Mysore royal family, who were its principal patrons. Nanjangud is also famous for its banana variety (Nanjangud Rasabale), a GI-tagged product.
