Omkareshwara Temple Park Zone, Madikeri - History details

Madikeri’s Omkareshwara Temple—commissioned by King Lingarajendra II and consecrated in 1820—mixes Islamic‑Gothic elements: a central dome, four corner turrets, and a fish‑filled tank with a mantapa. Legends link its foundation to royal atonement; the linga is believed to have been brought from Kashi. Gardens and the tank frontage act as a quiet ‘park’ promenade around darshan timings.
