The Hazara Rama Temple served as a private place of worship for the Vijayanagara kings. Dedicated to Lord Rama, the temple walls depict continuous narrative panels of the Ramayana — among the finest examples of Vijayanagara art. The inner sanctum, surrounded by a pillared hall, exhibits polished granite pillars with carvings of warriors, animals, and celestial beings. The name “Hazara Rama” likely refers to the “thousand (hazara) panels” illustrating Rama’s life.
