The Achyuta Raya Temple is in Hampi, which was built in 1534 AD. It is one of the major temples of Hampi located between the Matanga hills and Gandhamadana. This temple depicts Vijayanagara architecture style of temples in its best and most improved form. This was among the last temples that were constructed in the celebrated city of Hampi prior to the decline of the Vijayanagara Empire.
The temple is much less crowded because of its location(hidden by nature between the Matanga hills and Gandhamadana).
The main idol worshiped in the Achyuta Raya Temple is Lord Tiruvengalanatha which is another form of Vishnu.
The towers, pillars, and walls have exquisite carvings and ornamentation. Major parts of the temple are in a damaged condition. Although it is in ruins, the temple does not fail in grandiosity and its magnificence.
