A Special cover was released on the Himavad Gopalaswamy Hill on 5th August 2022 at Gundlupet.
Gopalaswamy Hill is one of the historically important Temple situated in Gundlupete Taluk, Chamarajanagar District in Karnataka. The temple was built in the year 1315 of Hoysala Era by the King Ballala. The Garbhagraha contains an idol of Lord Krishna playing the flute under a tree, beautifully sculpted with the left toe resting on the right one. The unique feature here is that throughout the year just above the doors leading to the Sanctum Sanatorium cold water drips constantly and the legend also says that once a crow has a dip in the "Hamsatheertha: lake here and it turned into a swan and henceforth, no crows are to seen here.
