Location
Annappa Betta, also known as Badinede Betta, is a picturesque hill in Dharamsthala. The hill encloses the dwelling region and the shrines of four Dharam Gods. Annappa Betta is regularly visited by the travelers reaching Dharamsthala.
It is believed that in this hill, the four Dharma Daivas visited a Jain family known for their charity activities. The Jain family of Ammudevi Ballalthi and Birmanna Pergade lived in a home called Nelyadi Beedu in this hill about five centuries ago. This family established Shri Chandranatha Swamy Basadi in which the family offered their prayers regularly. This shrine is still there adorning the hills.
