The Apsidal Temple That Isn't About the Goddess The Durga Temple at Aihole is one of India's most distinctive early temples, built by the Badami Chalukyas around the 7th-8th century. Its plan is unusual, an apsidal, horseshoe-shaped sanctuary wrapped by a colonnaded verandah, echoing the layout of ancient rock-cut prayer halls.
March sits in the warm shoulder closing the peak for Aihole, 18 to 32°C, dry, warming fast, with strong by noon, push starts earlier. High but easing. Holi (typically Mar) is a worthwhile cultural anchor with private arrangements.
For the Durga Temple specifically, hours: sunrise to sunset. We sequence the visit for the prime hour and avoid the worst conditions March brings to Aihole.
