This coastal town
draws Hindu pilgrims, Sanskrit scholars and beach buffs alike.
Apart from its famed beaches and the Centre for Sanskrit
Learning, it is home to the ancient temple of Mahabaleshwara
with its Atmalinga, the Venkatramana Temple, the Ganapati Temple
and the Koti Theertha, a large temple tank where pilgrims
perform their ablutions. Other must-sees in Gokarna are the
enormous chariots which are dragged along the main street
between February and March.
