Belur: What to see nearby?
What our travellers think of their stay
At 30km from Hassan and around 16km from Halebidu, Belur is a small, isolated village in the heart of the Karnatakan countryside.
My suggestion
Hassan, as a mid-way point between Bangalore and Mysore, is a useful base from which to visit Belur and Halebidu. But even so, you could always stay at Belur itself, as you'll get a taste of Indian rural life.
The town of Belur lies around thirty kilometers to the north of Hassan and owes its fame to its Hoysala temple.
My suggestion
Set off in the morning, examine the sculptures, enjoy a vegetarian lunch and then head straight to Halebid so see and explore its temples and compare them with what you've seen in Belur.
