Hassan
Halebidu, literally meaning The Old City, was once the glorified royal capital of the Hoysala kingdom. During the older days, it was known as Dwarasamudra which meant entrance to the ocean. Located in Hassan district about 184 kms from the capital city of Bangalore and about 118 kms from the cultural capital of Mysore, this city enjoyed its royal glory during the 12th century. The city was later termed as Halebidu after it was ransacked twice by the Bahmani sultan.
