History
It is said that Kempe Gowda founded Ulsoor, and tradition carries the story thus: The whole area was covered with forest, and Kempe Gowda came from Yelahankar chasing game, and was tired during the chase. While he rested under a tree, in his sleep the God Somesvara (who was supposedly worshipped earlier by the Mandava Rishi at this very spot), appeared to Kempe Gowda in a dream and revealed the existence of a hidden treasure. Kempe Gowda is supposed to have dug up the treasure and built the Somesvara pagoda, and was said to use the services of a sculptor from Belur, a descendant of the famous Jakanachari, to decorate the walls with scenes from the marriage of Siva and Paravati
Yediyur Lake
It is another beautiful lake in Bangalore which has unfortunately remained neglected. The distinguished feature of this lake is the sculpture of a girl by artist John Devaraj, situated right at the centre of the lake. The surroundings are also green and peaceful.
