Infact there is nothing much interesting in Shettihalli, except this very old church on the beautiful banks of Hemavathi river. This is close to Hassan. If you like the natural landscape and the beauty of the villages in Karnataka you will appreciate this.
Every year during the monsoon, this church goes inside the water submerged. Luckily we have gone in summer and could see it fully.
