Ivara Kandapura (also known as Ayvara Kandapura, Aiganadapura) is a small hamlet adjoining Hesaraghatta on the northern outskirts of Bangalore, in Karnataka, India. Ivara Kandapura is famous for a 10th-century temple complex that is home to five temples, named after the pandavas as The Dharmeshwara, Nakuleshwara, Bheemeshwara, Sahadeshwara, Arjuneshwara and Kunti Gudi.
An inscription in Nelamangala Taluk, which is dated to 1029 CE, records the sanction of a Siddeshwara temple by 'Vamnayyan in memory of his Guru.[1] The two inscriptions below marked the boundaries of lands donated to the Siddeshwara Temple.
