Kurudumale Ganesha temple is ancient and located 101 km east of Bengaluru, Karnataka.
The giant 13.5 feet tall deity is said to have been installed in Kruthayuga. Sri Rama (during Threthayuga) and Pandavas ( during Dwaparayuga) are said to have come here.
The Ganesha deity was in the open for a very long time before Vijayanagara kings built the current temple structure in 14th century CE.
There’s also a Someswara temple in the vicinity, built by Cholas in 11th century CE. It’s a magnificent one with high ornamentation on its walls and pillars.
