About Our Place

The town has derived its name from the widely grown Bamboo in ancient days. The word Moodbidri comes from two Tulu words “MOODU” means East and “BIDIRE” means Bamboo. It is known as Jain Kashi due to the existence of executively carved 18 Jain Basadis, the magnificent 1000 pillar temple is the most prominent one for its architectural marvel. The town nestles amidst lush greenary and has 18 lakes among which “Kadalakere” has been developed as Bird Sanctuary. The cashew Industry is flourishing here and delicious pineapple is grown in abundance. Recently Moodbidri has developed as the Educational Hub of South India. The people have set an example of Communal Harmony and Peace.
