Thennangur Panduranga Temple

The famous Sri Panduranga temple was built with a combination of northern and southern styles of architecture. The temple resembles the Puri Jaganath temple in Orissa and its front gopurams are constructed in the Pallava style of architecture. The primary temple was modeled upon the Puri Jaganath temple, whereas the outside structure reflects Pandava architecture. The temple features a 120 ft tower (vinamam) topped by a 9-1/2 ft gold kalasam with the Sudarsana Chakra (disc of Panduranga), and a saffron-colored flag flying above the tower.
