Rains change parched Kolar into lush scenic beauty, bring Anthargange back to life (see pics)

After a harsh summer this year, where monkeys struggled for lack of water in its streams, Kolar's Anthargange, which originates at the Shathashrunga mountain range is back to life. Due to rains on Saturday and Sunday, the Antargange which means 'Ganges from deep' is in full flow.

The sound of bubbles adds to the sense of calm the scenic beauty provides for visitors

The scene from the Shathashrunga mountain range makes one feel like they are in Kodagu or Ooty hill stations.

Anthargange is famous for Sri Kashi Vishweshwara temple, also known as Kashi of South.

In the temple is a pond which receives continuous flow of underground water from the mouth of Basava (stone bull). 

Visitors believe that drinking water from the pond cleanses one of many diseases.
