Udupi Dharmasthala Holiday Packages
What’s All the Fuss about Udupi Dharmasthala Tour?
The name Dharmasthala itself is a hint towards what the city can be about. The entire town has grown around the famous Dharmasthala Temple which houses multiple deities, and is also a center of communal harmony as the temple is run by Jain administration but pujas are conducted by Hindu priests. Udupi is no less of a religious land, with Sri Krishna Temple and Matha at the center of its cityscape.
What’s Special about Tour in Udupi Dharmasthala Tour?
Udupi Dharmasthala trip is mostly about temples and holy shrines, of utmost attraction to Hindu pilgrims. Sri Krishna Matha Temple and Anantheswara Temple in Udupi and Dharmasthala Temple in Dharmasthala are two very important sites of Hindu and Jain pilgrimage in Karnataka. But temples are not the only thing to see here. Kapu Beach and Malpe Beach in Udupi are beautiful getaways from the city. Kapu Beach is comparatively lesser known and has a lighthouse, and is perfect for an afternoon’s walking exploration. Malpe Beach near Stella Maris Church is the place to enjoy heartwarming sunsets over the Arabian Sea. From Malpe Harbour, catch ferries to go to St Mary’s Island and set foot in the same land where the first European in India, Portuguese explorer Vasco da Gama had landed in the 1400s. Keep an eye at the boat service. The last boat is at 6 pm usually but can be pre-poned in case of adverse sea conditions.
Spend Time at the temples in Udupi Dharmasthala Tour
Sri Krishna Temple and Matha are said to be at least 1500 years old. Sage Madhwacharya is the founder of the temple, who is also the founder of one of the main schools of Vaishnavite belief. He established the idea of Dvaita or dualism, in contrast to the traditional Advaita or singular. The Sage set up a network of the monastic order consisting of eight Dvaita monasteries, together called Astamathas around Udupi. Dharmasthala is famous for the temple of the same name, which has shrines of Shiva, Manjunatha, Ammanavaru, Chandranath and the Dharma Daivas or the Guardians of Dharma - Kalarahu, Kalarkayi, Kumaraswamy and Kanyakumari. Do not miss Lakshadweep – the annual festival of lights in Dharmasthala.

Winters are great to visit too, but not as pretty as the monsoon.
