The most salient feature of the fort is that there are two masonry elephants installed outside the front gate of the fort. The fort is a great vantage point to see the entire city of Coorg from atop.
A Shaiva theology inspired temple, the Omkareshwara temple was built in the most unique architectural combinations.
