Navratri (Dasara) at Shri Amruteshwara Temple is a vibrant nine‑night celebration honoring Goddess Durga, with many Shiva temples hosting auxiliary rituals and cultural events. The temple is beautifully adorned with lights and garlands, and idols of Durga, Lakshmi, and Saraswati are lavishly decorated. Visitors witness classical music and dance performances, and participate in special aartis and prayers. In Karnataka, the festival culminates with Vijaya Dashami, celebrated as Dasara, featuring traditional processions—sometimes including grand elephant parades—and community gatherings that strengthen devotion and cultural pride.
