Bull Temple
[edit] History
In the past, Basavanagudi was surrounded by fields where groundnut was cultivated. On every full moon day a bull would charge into the groundnut fields and damage the crop. The farmers then offered prayers to (Nandi) to stop this and pledged to offer their first crop. [1]
