Kudroli Gokarnanatheshwar temple is just 3 Kms from Mangalore city railway station. The presiding deity is Siva and this idol was consecrated by Sri Narayana Guru, a saint and social reformer belonging to Kerala in 1912. The temple was constructed mainly for the Billava community who were denied entry to other temples in those days. There are also sub shrines for Krishna, Ganapathi, Subramanya, Durga, Anna Poorneshwari, Hanuman, Saneeshwara and Navagrahas here. The temple was renovated few years back.
