The Arakeshwara Temple is a Hindu temple in Hale Yedatore, a village in the Krishnaraja Nagara taluk of the Mysore district, Karnataka state, India. The temple dates back at least to early 19th century rule of the Mysore Kingdom and is built in typical dravidian style. Hale Yedatore is located only a few miles north of the commercially important town of Krishnarajanagara and about 24 miles north-west of the historically important city of Mysore.[1]
The temple is a protected monument under the Karnataka state division of the Archaeological Survey of India.[2]
