Huchhappaya Matt, Anegundi

The first thing we saw in Anegundi after crossing Tungabhadra river is Huchhappaya Matt. It is a few minutes walk from the river bank. From the circle, one need to take the right hand road.  Here a sage named Huchchappaiah mediated here and hence the name. The temple has ornamental carved pillars from black granite stones.  The green surrounding of the temple gives a very peaceful feelings.

Though apart from that nothing much to see here, we sat for sometime enjoying wind breeze and doing some nice photo session.
