Shri Manjuguni Venkataramana Temple - History details

At Manjuguni near Sirsi in the Sahyadris, this Vijayanagara‑style shrine venerates Lord Venkataramana and Padmavati. Tradition links its founding to the saint Tirumala Yogi, while grants here span the 13th–16th centuries. The deity, called Karnataka’s ‘Chikka Tirupati’, is famed for a bow‑and‑arrow icon. Misty winters give the village its name (manju=fog). Major Rathotsava is held each March.
