Dear Sir, please help me! How to find Rama Padam? Is it near of Narasimha Temple?
Good day! Chintamani Rama Paadam is located in Anegundi, across the Thungabhadra river from Hampi (on the other side of the river).
It’s located in the vicinity of Sri Krishnadevaraya’s Samadhi Mantap, near to the Mukti Narasimha temple – This is not the Narasimha temple of Hampi.
