Hassan Travel Guide

Hassan in Karnataka was named after the presiding deity, Goddess Hasanamba. There is a famous temple dedicated to the Goddess in the heart of the town and it is opened to the public only once a year. Hassan is an important pilgrimage destination for the Jains and it has amazing heritage structures also. Since Hassan is situated at an elevation, it enjoys a rather pleasant weather all through the year.

Jain temples are very particular about your attire and what articles you are allowed to take into the temples. Dress appropriately and avoid carrying or wearing leather articles including leather belts.
