Chavundaraya Basadi is a historic Jain temple on Chandragiri hill, constructed in the 10th century by the general Chavundaraya. The temple is dedicated to Neminatha, the 22nd Tirthankara, and houses a large, finely carved statue of him. Visitors can admire the detailed stone work and the serene idol, which is a highlight of Jain artistry. The temple's age and connection to Chavundaraya make it a significant pilgrimage site.
