The Lakshmikantha Swami temple situated at the centre of the village is the centre of tourist activity in this village. This is an ancient temple and is at least 700 years old. It is an exquisite piece of [[Hoysala architecture]] and is constructed in the trikootachala style with a triad of shrines around a central atrium. From the vantage point of the central atrium one can simultaneously view the three deities. Lakshmikantha (literally the Lord of Lakshmi) adorns the central [[sanctum sanctorum]]. Venugopala and Lakshminarasimha comprise the other two deities of the triad. A beautiful image of [[Andal]] adorns a corner of the central atrium. Another enclosure houses the images of Sri [[Ramanuja]], [[Vedantha Desika]] and other [[alwars]]. Outside the main complex, at the entrance gate are shrines of Ganapathi and the Navagrahas. For most part of the last century, this temple was in a dilapidated state. But towards the turn of the last century,{{clarify|date=November 2014}} this temple was renovated due to the untiring efforts of Sri Rangapriya Swami and the financial support of the TVS group.
