Anakare - (elephant lake) ~ Basadi


Once built as a tank in 1262 by the King Pandyadeva, it supplied the city with drinking water for over eight centuries. Today, this ancient 12th century Anekere spreading over an area of 7 acres is full of clear water and adorned with beautiful white lilies.
Basadi refers to Jaina temples with residences of scholars attached to the shrine.—Before the 12th century, Jainism was the dominating religion of this region. About a third of the total population were Jains. Especially during the rule of Rāṣṭrakūṭas and Chalukyas and their feudatories, namely the Haihayahs and Kalachurīs, Jainism reached its peak. Many basadis were built throughout the region. Many places of this region became popular as Jain kṣetras. These centres have played an important role in the socio-religious life of the people of this region. Almost each village had a Jaina basadi that served as an important centre of Jainism.
