Kotilingeshwara Temple, Koteshwara ( Udupi District ) - History details

Near Kundapura, the Kotilingeshwara/Kotinatha shrine is among Karnataka’s Parashurama‑kshetras and seven muktisthalas. Kerala‑style roofs, a vast Koti‑Tirtha tank and multiple shrines (Subramanya, Ganapati, Jyeshta‑Lakshmi) frame the complex. Local lore speaks of ‘koti’ lingas and Parashurama’s consecration; annual festivals and kodi habba enliven this coastal Shaiva tapobhumi.
