Dodda Bathi Gudda

This is the silhouette of Dodda Bathi Gudda which is situated between Davangere and Harihar cities. On the eastern slope of the hill is a temple dedicated to Sri Revana Siddeshwara, an avatar of Shiva. The shrine is ancient but the temple building has been renovated recently.

At the base of Dodda Bathi Gudda is a village of the same name. The village is surrounded by agricultural land, paddy and sugarcane being the main crops here. Sri Revana Siddeshwara Devastana is the center of Dodda Bathi's social activity. Village people have donated generously and put in great efforts to renovate the temple premises. A community hall with a kitchen & store room have been built, this is for the village people's convenience. Events like weddings and other religious functions are held here. Of course the hall is also utilized during the temple's annual fair.
