Sringeri sharadamba temple

The Sharada temple, dedicated to the Goddess of learning and wisdom, has grown from a simple shrine dating to the time of Adi Shankaracharya.

After an unexpected fire that damaged the structure, the current structure was built in the traditional south Indian style of temple architecture
