A short distance from the Triveni Sangama, there is a famous temple known as Sri Bhagandeshwara temple, where Bhagandeshwara (Ishwara), Subramanya, Mahavishnu and Ganapati idols are installed. This place is also known as Bhagandeshwara Kshetra, from which the name Bhagamandala is derived. The temples in this area are built in Kerala style which is also similar to the temples in Nepal. The temple can be seen as the large rectangular courtyard at bottom right with separate structures inside. This temple was renovated extensively by the state government as of the June 2008.

Bhagamandala and Talacauvery are centers of pilgrimage for Hindus. The famous Hindu religious place, Talacauvery is about 8 km away to the west. It is a common practice for pilgrims to take a dip in the Triveni Sangama and perform rituals to their ancestors before proceeding to Talacauvery, the birthplace of Cauvery. During Tula Sankramana which falls on October 17th or 18th, pilgrims assemble here in large numbers.
