Hi All,

1. Trip to balaji tripuati ( from KSRTC package http://karnatakaholidays.net/)
2. Trip to Mysore/ooty ( from KSRTC package )

Now i have to plan for approximately 1.5 days more ( saturday and ard 6pm till sunday)

So for Saturday I am stuck with these two packages I want to know which is the better option (again ksrtc package )

Belur - Halebeedu - Shravanabelagola (1 day)
A one-day tour to the Hoysala period temples of Belur & Halebeedu and the tallest stone statue of Gommateshwara at Shravanabelagola, a Jain pilgrimage centre

OR ----

Chikka Tirupathi - Kotilingeshwara - Bangaru Tirupathi - Mulbagal - Kaiwara
A one-day tour to the temples of Kolar, Venkateshwara Temple at Chikka Tirupathi and Bangaru Tirupathi, 1000 Shiva Lingas at Kotilingeshwara, Hanuman Temple at Mulbagal and Amaranarayana Temple at Kaiwara

I will definetly visit belur, halebid and shravanabelagola. You can visit all the places in option 2 in ksrtc buses. I think you can cover chikka tirupati and kotilingashwar by ksrtc bus.

Hi,
chikka tirupati is also called the poor mans tirupati,it is a very old temple and it is close by to bangalore. Kottelingeswara is a new temple with almost 1000 lingas placed by the people and it is little far away from bangalore.
