Virupaksh is Swayambhu.
Ravan in Tretayug asked Shiva to come with him to Lanka, Shiva gave him Shivling saying it shouldn’t be put on ground before reaching Lanka, Ravan en route put it down for a moment & couldn’t move it again.
Its here that Sita ji dropped her ornaments.

प्रभु इच्छा से ही उनकी सेवा मिलती है, @sharan_shivani और मुझे, राम चरित मानस जी के 14 वर्षों से निरंतर चल रहे अखंड पाठ के श्रवण का सौभाग्य प्राप्त हुआ 🙏🏻
Its Malyavanta Hills where HE stayed, so Krishnadevaraya built Raghunath Mandir here. #जय_श्रीराम
