'''Halebid''', located in [[Hassan]] district, [[Karnataka]], [[India]], is home of one of the greatest examples of [[Hoysala architecture]].
The Hoysaleswara Temple, dating back to the 12th century, is astounding for its wealth of sculptural details. The walls of the temple are covered with an endless variety of gods and goddesses, animals, birds and dancing girls. Yet no two facets of the temple are the same. This magnificent temple - guarded by a [[Nandi]] Bull - was never completed, despite 86 years of labor. The [[Jain]] basadis nearby are equally rich in sculptural detail. [[Belur]] and Halebid are 222 and 216 km from [[Bangalore]], respectively.
