| About Udupi Tourism |
Sixty kilometers from Mangalore, is the temple town of Udupi, famous for its Krishna temple established in the 13th century by the great Sanskrit philosopher, Madhavacharya. The temple attracts pilgrims from all over India and is also a centre for the Dvaita philosophy. Udipi is also the district headquarters and is the third-most important city of Karnataka, after Bangalore and Mangalore.
The economy is based on agriculture and fishing, as well as small scale
industries such as food processing, dairy and cashew production. It is
also developing into a hub for the software industry. Udipi is synonymous with the world-famous Udipi cuisine, which is served all over India in the efficiently-run Udipi restaurants, famous for dosas, idlis and other snacks. The tradition of this cuisine started in the great kitchens of the Krishna Temple which serve meals in the form of prasada to the thousands of devotees |

The University town of MANIPAL Food, sight-seeing and shopping The temples in UDUPI are its biggest attraction. The town is famous for its history of religious tolerance, being a renowned and ancient centre Activities & things to do A visit to the UNIVERSITY town of Manipal is highly recommended. This is a tribute to the genius and vision of Shri.T.M.A.Pai and the PAI Travel tips, How to reach, travel warnings etc. The Karnataka State Government can certainly afford to maintain the roads in this town of religious significance to the Hindus.
The roads in MANIPAL are disgusting......!!!!
