Pilgrims and visitors often come here not only to offer prayers but also to meditate and absorb the spiritual energy of the place.

Its a very peaceful place. You will feel like heaven.

* Epitome of Sanatana Dharma * Feeling Blessed !!

A fabulous place to visit

Sacred place for Hindus. Located in between lush green forest. Traveling towards Sringeri is a fantastic experience while driving in the Western Ghats of Karnataka. Must visit places irrespective of religion and caste. Also we ll get so many trekking spots and falls near Sringeri. If you wanna go to Sringeri then you should stay there for at least two days to all the places near it. You'll get a great dinner at the temple itself. Visit once if possible. Thank you ??...

> Stunning ancient architecture, lush greenery, and the sound of the flowing Tunga River make this temple an unforgettable spiritual retreat. Don’t miss the evening aarti — it’s magical!

Totally worth visiting. Powerful place. Sharadamba temple is very beautiful and has good energy.

A very old and nice temple to visit along the sides of the Tunga River. Good place to spend half a day of time here. Activities you can do: - Temple visit (3-4). In the Main temple, you need Panche n shallya for mens and dress/ saree for womens to go near the deity. - feeding the river fishes(you can get churmuri, bread scrum packets outside) - take a bath in the river near the parking lot. If the water is more, you need supervision for kids. - Cross the river on the bridge and visit the Peetha of swamiji. - Room booking : The temple has a lot of room facilities, please book in advance as rooms will be full on the weekend. There are private lodges also around in case you need it.

Temple is very beautiful and god is very powerful in this Temple but the faculty spoil the temple premises. The devotees gents should not wear shirts and and ladies is not allowed without dupatta . But lady security can wear shirts near the garbha gudi. Gents security can wear shirts and cap near the garbha gudi what type of rules and regulation they are following . And one more rules I have noticed in this temple for 10 years children's there following same rules this is not good

Hindu Goddesses, This temple was Built 900 + years by Guru Shankaracharya! Goddesses Saraswati meant for Education

Historical temple it is you must visit most preferred sharadamba temple in India is sringeri sri sharadamba

Very nice temple ?? and every day meals is here

Good place,,nice ?? ?? ??

My family and I visited Sringeri Temple on the last day. We had a fantastic day, arriving at 1:55 pm and enjoying the temple annadhana around 2:30 pm. Afterward, we relaxed at the temple, taking advantage of the many affordable rooms available. These rooms were of high quality, offering great value for money as they included two beds, a separate dressing room, a separate bathroom, a separate toilet, and two extra bedsheets. The temple was peaceful, allowing us to pray calmly and appreciate its beautiful architecture. We took some wonderful pictures and enjoyed another annadhana at 7:30 pm, which lasted until 8:30 pm. The river Tunga nearby was teeming with fish, including the famous meenuttu. It was truly an amazing day spent with my family at this beautiful temple.

High quality food will serve to all the peoples who came to temple.

Calm, peaceful and pure environment in temple. Nice to see the dresscode to maintain the sanctity of the temple. Backside of temple river Tungabhadra flowing gently.Prasadam served to devoties is very very tasty and hygienic.

The Sringeri Sharadamba Peetha, nestled on the banks of the pristine Tunga River in the Chikmagalur district of Karnataka, is one of the most sacred and culturally significant temples in India. Established by Adi Shankaracharya in the 8th century, it stands as the first of the four major Advaita mathas and is dedicated to Goddess Sharadamba, the divine embodiment of knowledge, wisdom, and learning. The main deity here is Sharadamba, a graceful and powerful form of Saraswati, beautifully adorned in a gold idol seated on a Sri Chakra. Adjacent to her sanctum lies the temple of Sri Vidyashankara, which blends Dravidian and Hoysala architectural styles, housing twelve zodiacal pillars that align with the sun’s rays during specific times of the year—a breathtaking scientific marvel from centuries ago. What adds to the spiritual richness of this temple is the divine prasadam— the coconut burfi and other traditional items symbolizing abundance and fulfillment. It isn’t just a blessing; it’s a sacred tradition passed through generations, believed to bring peace, knowledge, and prosperity. The temple complex is immaculately maintained, with daily Vedic chanting, poojas, and a deeply serene atmosphere. The entire town of Sringeri revolves around the Peetha, and scholars, students, and pilgrims alike flock here in search of divine grace and inner awakening. The riverfront ghats provide a peaceful setting for reflection, and the nearby bridge offers scenic views of the temple complex. Whether you are spiritually inclined, culturally curious, or simply looking for peace, Sringeri Sharadamba Peetha is an unforgettable experience. The vibrations here are divine, the heritage is profound, and the blessings are everlasting. A must-visit destination for every true seeker.

Sringeri is the site of Sri Sharadamba temple, a part of the Sringeri Sharada Peetham established by Adi Shankaracharya.

Goddess Shardamba temple Built by Shankaracharya, Feels divine and blessed after visiting here. Akshara abyasam is done for small kids for the first time. Situated beside the Thungabhadra river. The only thing which hurts is very worst management rude behaviour from security guys. They change the rules according to there’s wish every time. Recently when I visited they asked all the people to wear Dhotis for men which was not there before. The joke part is the security people wear pants and they are asking people to wear dhotis. This is the fate of normal people. Make sure to wear Dhotis if not then get it near the entrance of the temple. May goddess bless the Management… Parking is available at some price which is far from the temple.

Great place.... Spiritual vibrations???

A truly auspicious and serene Shakti Peetam of Goddess Sharada, surrounded by nature—an experience beyond words. ???? The divine presence of Sharada Devi is the highlight of the visit and fills your heart with peace. Please note: Dress code is strictly followed – Men: Dhoti, Women: Saree or Salwar with Dupatta. Entry near the sanctum is not allowed without proper attire. Please respect the tradition.

A Memorable Visit for Akshara Abhyasa: Our recent visit was particularly special as we went with family for my daughter's Akshara Abhyasa. For this ritual, it's essential to book tickets in advance. The kids absolutely loved the river view from the bridge, captivated by the numerous fish swimming by. In the evening, the illuminated bridge was a beautiful sight. We chose to stay in the temple's rooms, which were very well-maintained and comfortable. Each visit offers a new and wonderful experience!

You have to visit and experience to know the holiness of the place

Bharath, Advaita, Adi Shankaracharya, Hinduism, Sanatana Dharma - all the words will lead you to Shrungagiri now called as Sringeri, in Karnataka. Adi Shankaracharya ( 7 to 8th century) lived for only32 years, spent most of His life in Sringeri, established the first Amnaya Peetham of the four Peetham (mutts) here in Sringeri. He was born in Kalady, Kerala and ascended Kailash from Kedar. This Peetham is regarded as Vyakhyana Simhasana, The Throne of Transcendental Wisdom. Thus mutt is earmarked for Yajur Veda. Mahavakya for the Peetham is 'Aham Brahmasmi'. This foremost Peetham among all 4 mutts had Sri Sureswaracharya as the first head and has an unbroken lineage with illustrious Gurus. Now it is adorned by His Holiness Sri Bharathi Teertha Mahasannidhanam (36th Peetathipathi) and His successor Sri Vidhushekara Bharathi Swamigal) who give guidance to aspirants. Called as Dakshinamnaya Sri Sharada Peetam it has the main deity Sri Sharada who was brought and installed by Sri Adi Shankaracharya. This Peetham He founded at Sringeri in South India is for fostering the Vedas and the sacred tradition of Sanatana Dharma. Aim of these Mutt is, preserving and interpreting the sacred scriptures, training generations of spiritual teachers, guiding countless seekers on the path of Self-realization, maintaining the purity of dharmic traditions, responding to contemporary spiritual challenges with ancient wisdom Through these institutions, the revolutionary spiritual movement initiated by Sri Shankara for the propagation of Advaita Vedanta continues to flourish, adapting to changing times while remaining firmly rooted in eternal truth. The Amnaya Peethams serve as dynamic centers ensuring that the light of Sanatana Dharma will never be extinguished. It is reachable from Bangalore, or Mangalore or Shimoga or Udupi or Mysore or Chickmaglore by road. It was originally the ashram of sage Sri Rishya Shringa (hence got the name Shrungagiri) dating back to the Ramayana period. There are temples for Sri Rishya Shringa in Kigga (6 k.ms from Sringeri) and sage Sri Vibhandakar in Malahanikareswar temple inside Sringeri. There is a Jeeva Samadhi of Sri Vidyaranyar built on a iconic 'Vidya Shankar' temple a classic example of stone/ granite architecture under ASI. Navarathri festival is very famous and a grand event conducted here. Temples are managed by the mutt with excellent facilities for devotees. Lot of charity activities are also undertake. Free food is offered during noon and night. Rooms are available for stay now with online booking facilities. Acharyas live on the otherside of river Tunga giving darshan and religious guidance to devotees and conduct Sri Chandramouleeswara puja every night. Never miss visiting this serene Punya Bhoomi in your lifetime. Visit with your family to seek blessings from Acharyas and Sri Sharadamba. Wheelchair accessible and available right from Rajagopuram.

Religious place, a visit must

Fairly well maintained, including online sevas available. Annadanam was dismal though, though there were multiple donors listed for the day - rice, watery rasam, payasam and a curry. Can do more for devotees welfare and taking care. Some renovations and repairs are going on as of Jul 2025. Make sure to take along dhoti and panche, as there will be no entry near main Sharada temple and Guru Nivas otherwise, and that is enforced strictly.

In summer it is okey witnessing these temple in the winter hits different… The nature little rain the view everything the just Perfect…?????? ??????

This is the one of the 4 peetas created by Jagathguru Adi Shankaracharya!!

Powerful places better time to visit October- may time period

Very organised and peaceful……

Peaceful ambience

Visited on 3rd July 2025, had divine darshan and took blessings of goddess Sharadambe. Very less crowded and finished darshan in 5-10 mins. The river was almost full due to heavy rains. Please be cautious while taking the route to Sringeri from Hornadu from Kogre (short route). The roads are steep and narrow. Only choose this if your vehicle is in good condition. But the route is very scenic.

Visited in late July. Non stop rain . No waiting or long queues at the temple .

This is one of the Shakti Peeth, Must visit

Maha Sannidhanam (elder) performed the Chandra Mauleswarar puja at night. Sannidhanam (younger) darshan.

Nice location

?? About Sringeri Sharada Peetham Sringeri, a small temple town located on the banks of the Tunga River in the Chikkamagaluru district of Karnataka. Founded by Adi Shankaracharya in the 8th century CE, Sringeri is one of the four cardinal mathas (monastic centers) established by him to revive and protect Sanatana Dharma and promote the philosophy of Advaita Vedanta. It is the first and foremost of the four mathas, representing the southern direction (Dakshina Amnaya Peetham). The other three are: Govardhan Math (Puri – East) Dwaraka Sharada Peetham (Dwaraka – West) Jyotir Math (Badrinath – North) Sringeri was chosen by Adi Shankaracharya after he witnessed a unique sight: a cobra spreading its hood to shelter a pregnant frog from the hot sun—a symbol of harmony and wisdom. This deeply moved him and inspired the establishment of the peetham in this spiritually rich region. The Peetham is dedicated to Goddess Sharadamba, the goddess of wisdom and learning—an incarnation of Saraswati. The Dakshinamnaya Sri Sharada Peetham is a living tradition of Vedic learning, spiritual practice, and cultural preservation. It continues to follow an unbroken Guru Parampara (lineage of saints) since Adi Shankaracharya. The current Jagadguru Shankaracharya of Sringeri, the 36th in the lineage, is regarded as a guiding force in spiritual, philosophical, and social matters for millions of devotees. Sri Sharadamba Temple – A stunning Dravidian-style temple devoted to the Goddess of Knowledge. Vidyashankara Temple – Built in the 14th century, it’s a blend of Hoysala and Dravidian architecture, and a marvel of astronomical alignment. Tunga River Ghat – Serene riverbank used for rituals and spiritual cleansing. Sringeri Math Complex – Monastic buildings, Vedic schools (Pathashalas), libraries, and halls for discourse.

It is a very beautiful temple.

A must visit Temple, every human being should see and spend some quiet time observing this beautiful architectural marvel.

Sringeri Sharadamba Temple is one of the four monasteries established by Adiguru Shankaracharya! After years of waiting, hope and faith, I got the opportunity to visit Maa Sharadamba in this holy Dham. The gurgling stream of Tunga river flowing nearby gives a deep feeling of happiness and peace. This holy place located in the lap of nature is very picturesque! There are two main routes to reach Dakshinamnaya Sri Sringeri Sharada Peetham... one is from the dense forests of Bhadra Wildlife Sanctuary. Entry is allowed with the permission letter of the administration, and the other one can reach here from the high peaks of Agumbe Hills without any permission. All the facilities of accommodation and food will be easily available. Sringeri is related to the famous sage Rishyashringa of Ramayana, who was the son of sage Vibhandak.

Serene and calm. Must visit if you want to experience divinity

Peaceful and spiritual place

Sringeri Sharada Peetham is a truly divine and peaceful place. The temple of Goddess Sharadamba is magnificent, and the spiritual energy here is palpable. It's a serene oasis where you can truly connect with your inner self. The rituals are performed with great devotion, and the temple premises are impeccably clean and well-maintained. The location on the banks of the Tunga River adds to the overall tranquility. A must-visit for anyone seeking peace and blessings.

Try old temple built by Sri Jagadguru Shankacharya,

Its very beautiful Experience. Divine and spiritual trip.

Hometown Peace of mind

So Devine

??All the great men who have ascended the Sringeri Peeth have also contributed greatly to this country by spreading Sanatana Dharma and by searching for worthy disciples and appointing them as the Uttaradhipats of the Peeth. ?The Peethadhipas who have ascended the Peeth and are leading the Dharma are truly great beings who have sanctified the whole of India, having equal fame with Shankara Bhagavatpada and truly being the embodiment of Sharada. ??The current Peethadhipas are Bharathi Tirtha Mahaswami's disciple Sri Sri Vidhusekhara Bharathi Swami. Having the darshan of such gurus and being blessed with their blessings cannot happen without the merit of several crores of births. ??There is a bus from Bangalore to reach here. After getting off the bus in Chikmagalur, from there you can go to Sringeri. There will be a bus as the director. After going to Sringeri, there is a very good accommodation hall and rooms on behalf of the Peetham. You can stay there for the night. The next day morning, take a bath in the Tungabhadra river, visit the temple and have darshan of Sarada Mata. Then at 10 am, Sri Sri Sri Vidhusekhara Bharathi Swam, the head of the Peetham, will come. After their darshan and prostration, the gate of the bridge over the Tungabhadra will be opened at 10 am. If you go inside from the bridge, you will find the Brindavan of the Gurus who have occupied the Sringeri Sarada Peetham. You must go there and have darshan.

Such a devine place. Awesome place . Have been visiting almost every year . New thing this time was kalabhairav temple very near to main temple, a must visit walkable around 9 min from sringeri temple. Very good place for meditation.

Wow. Divine and Blissful

Well maintained. Wish the parking lot to temple route were better. You have to walk barefoot all the way to temple and there is no water to wash your feet.

Peaceful divine hindu shrine in a naturally wonderful spot. Have pleasnt darsan of devi sarathambal and lord Siva

Good vibes &Good food

Photography and videography

Very nice and beautiful temple in karanataka

Historic place on the banks of a river. Well maintained

A pious and divine hindu temple of devi sharade, world famous for it's serenity and pure regiligious atmosphere amidst the natural beauty. One can feel peace and calmness in the premises.

Panche mandatory for men and stole mandatory for women who want to have a closer darshana near the garbhagudi.

A peaceful place with positive vibe

Shringeri is a place where one can find peace of mind in both materialistic as also non-materialistic atmosphere.

The temple’s name, Sharadamba, means the Divine Mother of Knowledge Originally, Adi Shankaracharya installed a simple sandalwood idol of Sharadamba over a Sri Chakra carved on a rock.

Doti/panche is mandatory for men else entry to main temple will be missed

Spiritual space for calm and peaceful healing.

Great temple.

Good place to visit Food is provided

To each and every Hindu person, my message is you will never find any Darshan tickets available only meditations will be offered for Darshan I paid 5000 for two days Darshan money is not going to the temple and maintainence is worst there is a board written saying that Dattharaya swamy will be there wherever there is cleanliness. You will never find cleanliness. Only Dattharaya Swamy should save this Temple.

No words to explain. Everybody can feel the presence of god.

An absolutely divine and spiritually rejuvenating experience! The Sringeri Sharada Devi Temple, on the serene banks of the Tunga river, is a place of immense tranquility. The main shrine of Goddess Sharadamba radiates a powerful, calming energy that quiets the mind and fills the heart with devotion. ?What makes Sringeri profoundly special is that it is a living center of Advaita Vedanta, guided by the revered Jagadguru Shankaracharya, Sri Sri Bharati Tirtha Mahaswamiji. The opportunity to have the darshana of the Acharya is a deeply blessed and humbling experience. His presence enriches the spiritual atmosphere, making you feel connected to an unbroken lineage of wisdom stretching back to Adi Shankaracharya himself. The entire complex, including the magnificent Vidyashankara Temple, is impeccably maintained. A truly complete spiritual pilgrimage.

Nice ancient architecture

Good temple. It is 8th-century Hindu temple near the river, with an ornately carved facade & a tall, colorful tower.

Excellent place, divine experience. Feels like visiting again.

I have seen thrice. The best temple, but not allowed on the bridge after 12 in daytime. Meals is not good and taste. It's worst meals. Just they give food for publicity and name.

We recommend Aksharabyasa for kids in this temple is best thing

I'm a Kannadiga and I've been visiting the temple from childhood. In my last visit I wasn't allowed to go near the idol since I wasn't following the new rules on dress code. I duly respect the dress code rules but wish these securities have some basic understanding of the rules in the first place. It's so disappointing to see such behaviour at temples. I was wearing a salwar but wasn't wearing a dupatta rather wearing a coat (traditional one with salwar). Security says, we should wear saree or complete salwar with dupatta. Whole point of dupatta is to cover your upper body which is done by the coat also. I really don't see the logic or why we aren't allowed. Holding a kid and wearing a dupatta is really difficult and that's why we try to wear something comfortable like a coat, jacket etc on salwar so that we can carry the kid during rainy season. Hopefully, sharadamba give these people some common sense too

Very devine place.there is tunga river ,where you can feed the fishes.so do bring or buy biscuits or lai for feeding for feeding fish before entering the temple. Only of weekend it is somewhat crowded and during Durga festival,in normal days there is negligible waiting for darshan.

Good place to visit, avoid during the rainy season. Please wear traditional attire.

A must visit place.

My favorite place.

Sringeri Sri Sharda Peetham, Karnataka had been established by Adi Shankaracharya in South direction of Bhart. It is a must visit Peeth for all santana dharma followers. We made pilgrimage to the peeth and took blessings of present Shankaracharya Shri Shri Jagatguru Bharti Tirth Mahaswami in Guru Niwas during Pad Pujan on 4th Sep.,2025.

Soo pleasant environment, peaceful, Beautifully maintained temple with a divine ambiance that calms the mind and soul

Must visit place

Sringeri is more than just a pilgrimage center—it’s an experience of peace, wisdom, and natural beauty. Whether you’re a spiritual seeker, a history enthusiast, or a nature lover, Sringeri has something soulful to offer.

Peace area we can visit with family?? Traditional pancha should wear otherwise no entry

Every hindu will must visit and know about adhisankaracharyalu????

Nice temple

A must visit for all. Devine place

Shri Jagadguru Shankaracharya Sharda Peetham in Sringeri is truly a divine and soul-soothing destination. The moment you step into the mutt, you can feel an aura of peace and positivity all around. The darshan of Sharda Maa is a deeply spiritual experience, filling you with calmness and devotion. Equally mesmerizing is the darshan of Vidyashankar Mahadev, whose presence adds to the sacred charm of the place. One of the most delightful experiences is sitting by the serene banks of the Tunga river and feeding the beautiful fishes. It creates a sense of connection with nature and adds to the peaceful atmosphere of the visit. If you are fortunate, you may also get the darshan of Shankaracharya Ji himself. The special puja conducted by him is a divine moment to witness and leaves you with unforgettable spiritual vibrations. The entire mutt is filled with strong positive energy that rejuvenates the mind and soul. For those planning to stay, the guest houses within the temple premises are a great option. They are very clean, simple, and extremely budget-friendly, with rooms available at around ?400 per night. Overall, Sringeri offers a unique blend of devotion, peace, and comfort for every visitor ????

Must visit. Too Good.

My guru Shri Jagadguru Shankaracharya temple

It's amazing.

Old & beautiful temple. Must visit.

Very nice temple n surrounding

It's amazing

Exlent

?On a fine Saturday morning in September, we went for our son's Aksharabhyasa. It wasn't a festive day, so while there was a small crowd, it didn't bother us. We collected a token and waited at the Saraswati Mantap for the ceremony. Afterwards, we entered the temple to visit the surrounding deities. We returned home after enjoying a pleasant annaprasada.

One of the Dharmasthala set up by Shri Adi Shankaracharya for spreading spirituality. It has two temples, main one dedicated to Shardama Shaktipeeth (Goddess Saraswati) and an old temple dedicated to Lord Shiva. Temple is bliss, please wear appropriate dress for Hindu temples else you won't be allowed to enter the Sanctum area.

Great Spiritual experience with peace of mind.

The Sringeri temple, situated in the heart of the Western Ghats, is a divine destination nestled on the banks of the Tunga River. This sacred site is home to the revered Sharada Mata Temple and the ancient Vidyashankara Temple, showcasing stunning architecture and spiritual significance.Temple food is offerent for both lunch & dinner.

Divine

I felt Vidyashankara temple is very powerful and it is a marvelous monument of ancient architecture. For visiting the Sharadha temple, one should wear traditional dress like dhoti with uthareeyam etc. for men (pants, trousers, shirt etc are not allowed), churidar with dupatta or sari for women as prescribed by temple administration, to enter onto the Mandapa close to Sharadamba deity. Without wearing traditional dress, you can enter into the temple and do pradakshinam, but can't enter into the Mandapa, i.e. close to the diety, that's all. Still you can bow to devi, from a little far. Staff in Sharada temple are not friendly and does not explain what are the different offerings we can give to devi, immediately and get prasadam. But still we will get satisfaction to visit the place of Adi Shankaracharya. A very beautiful place, in my opinion. Annadanam is arranged by the temple authorities.

Sringeri where silence speaks divinity.

One of the peaceful temple that I've visited. Very calm and very well maintained.

Peacefull place.

I visited on Thursday around 11am. I was able to get glimpse of Mahasanithanams around 1pm

Superb temple on the banks of river Tungabhadra ??

Wonderful and very sacred place A holy place for saadhakaas Please visit Narasimha vana if you are at Sringeri Surrounding places are also very sacred ones Listen to Veda chanting without miss Must attend Chandra Mouleshwara puja every evening after 8.30 pm Never miss Prasadam at this place

It feels as if you have time travelled back to the ancient

Spiritual...i like this place bt the priest have more arrogance, they treat people untouchable i don't like their behavior...temple is for praying and we go to temple where we feel peace..but their behavior made my day worst... shame on them...they should change their behaviors..we came from so long and their behavior was unacceptable.if u feel like not treating people then close the temple for tourist..

Very powerful place one as to visit with family and kids

The Sringeri temple is truly divine, beautiful, and well-organised. ?? However, during the food service, one staff member spoke extremely rudely. It made us feel as though we came just to have food, not to receive prasada. I humbly request the authorities to kindly look into this so that devotees always feel respected in this sacred place.

Sringeri, Being a Hindu it's a must visit temple. excellent vibe

Visited 3 times there once in 2022 and 2023 two times it is a very awesome and beautiful temple where did vidyarambam and prayed had a really very good Darshan and the environment and goushala is also good ?????? hoping to visit again soon ???????????????????

The broadcast of Navaratri festivities 2025 by Sankara TV is excellent and we had the darshan of Sharadamba and our gurus Sri Sannidanams from our home.

You can feel the devine here.

Difficult to offer a puja due to crowd. Otherwise overall the architechture is nice. Nearby river scenary is really nice.

nice experience visiting Shankar matt, Chikmagalur.

Need to follow Induan dress codes , both for men and women.

The Sri Sharadamba Temple in Sringeri is one of the most peaceful and divine places I’ve ever visited. The temple is beautifully maintained, and the atmosphere is filled with positive energy. The darshan of Goddess Sharadamba gives a deep sense of calm and devotion. The surrounding temples like Sri Vidyashankara Temple and the scenic Tunga River add to the spiritual charm. The area is clean, well-organized, and the priests are very kind and patient. Evening poojas and the Chandramouleeswara worship at Guru Nivas are especially divine experiences. Overall, this is a must-visit temple for anyone seeking peace, knowledge, and blessings.

Beautiful.

good

One beautiful pilgrimage to boost up our internal energy

Nice place to visit.

One of the divine places where you could feel the pure vibes! This place would make you come back again for what it is!

Really a great place to visit for every Hindu. Wonderful location next to the Tunga river, very well maintained temple with great Saradha Peeta organisation. Love to visit again. Thanks

Sringeri, one of the most sacred spiritual centers in South India, is home to the Sri Sharadamba Temple, established by Adi Shankaracharya on the serene banks of the Tunga River. The temple is not only one of the Shakti Peethas, but also the first of the four Advaita mathas founded by the great saint. The temple is particularly famous for Aksharabhyasam (Vidyarambha) — the initiation ceremony for children before they begin formal education. The dedicated hall opens around 8:00 AM, and the ceremony continues till early afternoon. There are two main temples inside the complex — the ancient temple with the Bhimashila Shiva Linga and the new Sharadamba Temple, which houses the presiding goddess. The Tunga River flows beside the complex, where devotees can perform abhishekam to a small Shiva Linga near the ghats. A dress code is now enforced for inner darshan: men must wear a dhoti (without shirt or vest), and women are required to wear traditional Indian attire. The entire campus has many small shrines and a section displaying the life of Adi Shankaracharya with models — a wonderful learning spot for children too. Truly, a place that blends divinity, learning, and serenity.

??

Nice peaceful place ??

Must visit this place. Know more about our rich culture and heritage.

Beautiful temple, well maintained and advanced technology used for Pooja reservations

We went during navaratri time and it was blissful. We found snake in the river and be careful when you step in. You are asked to wear dhoti if u need to go closer to idol. If u pay 100 rupees , u will get coconut burfi as prasadam. Also there is a book shop inside too.

Very well maintained Temple. Darshan and Prasadam are really good. Toilets in the temple premises needs to maintained more cleaner and hygiene and also need to increase the numbers as there is too much waiting most of the times

Mahaa adbuthamina place

What a grainy saintSri Jagat Guru Shankaracharya was that he saved sanatan a at odds of Islamic terror

Sringeri temple must visit everyone, Saturday and Sunday it is very crowd in the temple.

Nestled in the mountains, the Sringeri Sharadamba Temple and nearby Shiva Temple offer a deeply spiritual experience. Though the mountain roads are a bit patchy, the serene beauty of the place quickly makes you forget the bumps along the way. ??? Parking is well-organized, and a short walk leads you to the shrine where you can receive the blessings of Devi Sharadamba. ?? Dress code must be followed to approach the deity closely, otherwise, darshan is from a distance. ?? A gentle river flows nearby, and feeding the fish with puffed rice is a peaceful daily ritual enjoyed by devotees. ??? Seva tickets are to be collected outside the temple premises before entering. ? Many visitors describe feeling a divine vibration in the serene atmosphere. ?? Lunch (prasadam) is provided simple, wholesome, and kind to both the pocket and the stomach.

If your doing anytype of religiois activities ask your nearone's who has visited or know about it

majestic experience. we were lucky to visit the temple in navaratri.

A nice calm serene temple to visit. Houses the shardha temple which is a newer structure and the vidhyasankar temple which is an older structure. Located on the river bank this is a place to go for mental peace and tranquility.

Well maintained, good temple, for spiritual lovers

Great architecture

Must visit temple, vast expanse of area with peaceful environment despite crowds in the temple.

Sringeri Sharadamba Temple, very peaceful and had quick darshan despite the crowd. The staff have been super helpful. We went during Navratri, Shankaracharya life journey installation was really nice and it helped us and our kids to learn a bit more. Recommend to spend sometime within the temple, there’s a very old temple built in Vijayanagara Empire and also suggest go to annaprasadam for lunch or dinner.

??

Good vibes

Super ??????

Shringeri Sharada temple is one of the ancient temples very well maintained.

It's a good experience there

Words cannot explain the experience

A very prominent Shaarda Devi temple and an Eighth century Shiva Temple.

Very well maintained temple ??

Suggest wear traditional dress while visiting. Else may be denied entry at multiple places in temple

This is a divine place. Had a good darshan of Sharadamba. Traditional dress code is a must. Phones in switched off or mute are allowed.

Nice

Temple was very peaceful and decorated and maintained really well. Had a chance to see the setup that was about Jagadguru Shankaracharya.

Place of Godess Saraswati.

Great divine place.. Full day can be spent whoever is seeking peace. You can book your seva tickets online also and there is a receipt printing machine and you can take the printout of that to take the prasada. Usually no rush is there in temple and great views are there inside as well as outside the temple. Vidya shankara Temple is build with complete stone and the architecture in it gives goosebumps. Anna prasadam will be there in the afternoon and night for abount 1.5 to 2 hours. Accommodation facilities are there, if you can book it online that will be well and good as there will be no rooms available in the weekends. Very costly prices for Pooja items, so be sure you bring it of your own.

Can I get the contact number of temple please

This plese is very good plese and histaricl and temple outside bisaid looking in very good

Beautiful temple, should visit. Temple has a strict dress code policy. Please ensure to adhere wearing the same during the visit.

Feeling blessed at Sharada peeth am. The deity represents Saraswati, the Goddess of Learning and Wisdom, in the serene abode of the Sringeri Sharada Peetham, founded by the revered sage Adi Shankaracharya.

Very nice

Must go place. Always have pujas and creating more positive energy.

Good devotional place must visit 800 century temple free food and accommodation for solo travelers hall available behind temple and families also stay free of cost.2 elephants main attraction bus connectivity from shivmogga railway station 3 hrs journey.peaceful environment.inside sarada temple dhoti is better

One of the powerful temple. The temple is near and clean. Several shrines, River Tunga, historical Shankara temple etc are most attractive.

The temple is really good. Very old architecture and design. Parking can be improved, if it rains it gets really muddy.

To get spritual experience, a much visit place

I have ever seen this type of devine place

Please follow the dress code, they are very strict with it

One of the well maintained and spiritual temple experiences! Located precisely as per GMaps, with a Free parking lot near the temple the accessibility is very easy. We went on Deepawali night and entered the temple at 8pm and the temple is open up to 9pm. Luckily - no crowd, no queues hence we got enough and more time in front of the beautiful deity goddess Sharadamba. The temple complex has prominent markings to guide your visit like the Ganapati temple and the Shiva temple which are quite prominent as well as many other deities. The Prasada counter operates up to 9pm and the Bhojanalaya (temple meals) closes at 8:30pm. Pro-tip: specific dressing for both men and women is required to enter the staircase closer to the goddess, so if you’d like to wear a saree or a dhoti! Else you still get the darshan from a slight distance which is okay if your visit is not a pilgrimage.

Very nice experience

Very old historic temple. There is dress code beyond a certain point, but darshan is better even before this point. Not too crowded.

Excellent place Very cleanly maintained

Devotees place Excellent ????

A historic temple a magnificent build of arictecture a powerful spirtual place must visit a beautiful scenery of nature mountain are there

Peace, calm and divine!!!

The staff was very cordially with us and helped us when we were drenched in rain.

I recently had the opportunity to visit the Sringeri Sharadamba Temple, and it was one of the most peaceful and spiritually fulfilling experiences I’ve had. Located on the banks of the Tunga River, the temple is surrounded by greenery and hills, giving it a very serene and divine atmosphere. The main deity here is Goddess Sharadamba (Saraswati), the Goddess of wisdom and learning. The temple’s architecture is a wonderful mix of traditional South Indian style with intricate carvings and beautifully sculpted pillars. The darshan experience was well organized. The queue system is smooth, and even on weekends, it doesn’t take too long. Only Indian traditional dress is allowed for darshan. Male – without banyan and shirt, Jeans also not allowed, and must wear dhoti. Female – Saree or Panjabi dress. Children – No western wear. The temple also offers the the Anna Prasada served by the temple, simple, tasty, and served with great devotion to all devotees, free of cost. - Temple timings: generally 6:00 AM to 2:00 PM and 4:00 PM to 9:00 PM. - Ample parking space is available nearby. - Shops outside sell pooja items, prasadam, and souvenirs. - Neatly maintained premises and drinking water facilities. - Accommodation options and restaurants are available close to the temple for visitors. Overall, Sringeri Sharadamba Temple is a must visit for anyone seeking peace, devotion, and spiritual energy amidst nature’s beauty.

Hindu religious place

First peeth founded by Jagadguru Shankaracharya. It was on my list and recently I made it happen. A very nice looking temple on the bank of river. It is very difficult to drive car specially when you are going from Bangalore. It is around 50 km zigzag road from Chikmagalur. I advise you to wear socks while visiting the temple as the floor is very hot.

It is a great experience to visit. It has importance of mata saraswati. It is must visited place the architecture and everything was awesome

Divine blessings. Huge place inside the temple for devotees to sit and do meditation or relax in front of the devasthana.Great food. Ample parking space. A small river flows next ot the devasthana where you can feed puffed rice to the fish. Dedicated free shoes and chappal stand. Make sure you wear panche and shalya (remove shirt/tshirts if you dont have shalya)

Sringeri Temple is a famous and peaceful temple dedicated to Goddess Sharadamba, located on the banks of the Tunga River.

Loved the place plan visit I'm the eve and watch with lights lit.

Very religious place to visit. You can really feel the positivity here...

Second visit and always love to be here for a peace and divine atmosphere.

Beautiful and serene temple and a piece of our ancient history. Arti starts only by 7:30 pm. They are pretty strict eith dress code - women need to wear salwar with dupatta or saree and men need to be in a dhoti. Ample car parking and paid footwear stand near temple entrance.

Very good temple.Sailence place.Ancient temple.

Nothing to write a review. Its a pure bliss to live in the moment.

Every year we visit here

Nice place no words to explain to say about this place from sringeri you can see lord shivs temple in kiga from there you can visit sirimane falls entry fee is 40 Rs per person.

??

Goddess saradha devi worshipped in the temple and the shankaracharya mutt just across the bridge where people throng to see Guru. Due to loss of continuity or no right person to perform rites/pooja of saligrama at home, the worshipped saligramam can be handed over here and the Guru arrange the correct rituals on daily basis by himself or his disciples. The same virtue as experienced by such families, will be continuously received. A very serene atmosphere and divine vibes felt.

Super Amazing ??????

Soulful experience.

Fresh and clean environment. Good management.

Sringeri is one of the famous and powerful temple of Ma Saraswati Devi and we also joined for some time at Rudrabhishekam performed by Sri Bhartiteertha swamy.

Great place, great architecture. Astronomical marvel

Visited the temple during weekdays and we were able to see Goddess Sharadamba for a long time as there was no queue.There was a small museum about the life of Adi Shankaracharya which was very interesting.

Simply divine....A must visit for all to seek Goddess Sharadambals darshan.the beauty of this temple cannot be put in words....only experience can say it all

Divine place , Can't be expressed in Words

Soulful atmosphere, very old religious place

Awesome temple

Beautiful place. Peaceful. First peetha established by Aadi Shankaracharya. By seeing a cobra shading the pregnant frog.

The environment and nature around the temple is a bliss to the eyes and the crowd has been well managed

I visited Sringeri back in July 2025 and stopped by the newly installed statue of Adi Shankaracharya. What a moving experience! The craftsmanship is beautiful, capturing the wisdom and serenity of the great sage in a way that truly invites reflection. The surroundings are quiet, respectful and well-kept, making it an ideal place for a moment of stillness. The placement of the statue feels thoughtful. It doesn’t just stand there as a monument but seems to invite you into conversation—with yourself, your faith, and the legacy of knowledge and devotion that Shankaracharya represents. I especially appreciated how the lighting and setting enhance the contemplative mood without being overly flashy. If you’re visiting Sringeri, take time to pause in front of this statue. Whether you’re a follower of Advaita Vedanta or simply curious, it offers a genuine point of connection and inspiration.

Spiritual

Superb Temple

Loved this place. Belongs to Sharada Peetam

Shri Sharada Peetha, Sringeri A serene and sacred matha established by Adi Shankaracharya in the 8th century, dedicated to Goddess Sharadamba. Located on the banks of the Tunga River, it is known for its peaceful atmosphere, traditional rituals, and beautiful temple architecture.

Amazing experience

Excellent

Visit Sringeri Temple for a culturally rich trip in Karnataka. Sringeri Sharada Peetham, set along the banks of the Tunga river, is one of the most revered pilgrimage centers in the state. The complex has two key temples: the Sri Vidyashankara Temple dedicated to Shiva, and the Sharada Amba Temple dedicated to Saraswati. It’s also one of the most auspicious places to begin your child’s Akshara Abhyasa, right in front of the goddess who embodies knowledge, learning, and speech.

Sringeri's temples are a spiritual highlight, with the Sharada Peetham and the stunning Vidyashankara Temple exuding a profound sense of history and peace. The serene atmosphere, combined with the impressive stone architecture and historical significance, makes for a deeply moving and memorable pilgrimage. It's a must-visit for anyone seeking a spiritual and cultural experience steeped in ancient philosophy.

Divine Place

Visiting the temple dedicated to the goddess of knowledge, Sharadamba Devi, which is one of the four mathas founded by Shankaracharya, was a truly remarkable experience. People come here for akshara abyasa of their children. Recently, they have introduced Vastra Samhite, so please plan to adhere to the proper dress code. Anna prasdam is also available which was awesome

Blessed

A wonderful temple with a divine atmosphere. The moment you enter, you feel a sense of calm. The surroundings are clean, the priests are polite, and the river adds a special charm to the entire experience. A must-visit for anyone traveling to Sringeri.

What can I say about this place—it's truly heaven. It was a very pleasant evening when I reached, and there were only around 20–30 people. We were able to visit the deity 4–5 times because it wasn’t crowded, and there were no strict restrictions. The place is extremely calm and peaceful. You can spend time near the Tunga river with the fish around—it's a soothing experience. You can also walk 3–4 km inside the meditation center; there are many things to explore. We also had dinner inside, and it was really good.

Holy place sanctified by the presence of . Jagadguru Sri. Shankaracharya.

Nice Temple

Nice divine place do visit, have blessings of goddess Saraswati

The first monastery established by Adi Shankara is Sri Sarada Peedam. Sri Saradambhal is enshrined in a golden temple. This temple, which dates back to the 8th century AD, has been renovated at various times. There are also temples dedicated to Sri Adi Shankara and Sri Vidya Shankara. There is a temple on the north bank of the Thuangabhadra river and a monastery and adhisthanams on the south bank. Sri Vidyaranya Tirtha, which was a sub-district of the Vijayanagara Empire, is the incumbent of Sarada Peedam. Mangalore is 105 km. away. Navaratri is a special time here.

Sringeri the temple of Sharadambe on the bank of river Tunga, beautiful temple. Food is served as prasadam.

A wonderful temple that offers a peaceful and spiritual experience. I have been here for my daughter's Aksharabhyasa. One of the highlights is the affordable, high-quality accommodation available on-site. They also serve delicious Anna Prasadam for both lunch and dinner. Unlike many other popular sites, it doesn't feel commercialized at all. I’m already looking forward to my next visit!

One of divine experience at Sringeri Peetham. Best view , divine experience, great prasadam, clean river. Best experience and divine visit.

Spiritual and powerful place,. For Aksharabhysa its the place of Maa Shrada.

Sringeri Sharada Peetham, nestled along the serene banks of the Tunga River in the Western Ghats of Karnataka, is a highly revered pilgrimage destination. It houses two primary temples: the Sri Vidyashankara Temple, dedicated to Lord Shiva, renowned for its exquisite architecture and ancient inscriptions, and the Sharada Amba Temple, dedicated to Goddess Saraswati, the goddess of wisdom, learning, and speech. This sacred site is considered an auspicious location to initiate a child’s Akshara Abhyasa, a traditional rite of passage marking the beginning of their learning journey, symbolized by the goddess of knowledge.
