Bidar, Karnataka · 17.9031°, 77.5439°
A cave temple at Bidar reached by wading some 300 metres along a water-filled tunnel cut under the Manichoola hills, where Narasimha is worshipped alongside a Shiva linga. It is counted among the 108 Abhimana Kshetrams of the Vaishnava tradition.
The demon Jharasura, slain by Narasimha, is said to have turned into water that has flowed from the god's feet through the tunnel ever since.
