There seems to be no mention of the place of Hiranyakasipu's specifically , though there is a detailed description of his palace.

an incarnation of Lord Vishnu has been said to have killed the demon-Hiranyaksha."

There are also other Temples dedicated to Narasimha near Kathmandu, Nepal.

Shiva And Vishnu Advice To Each Others Devotees

Some go the extent of saying that , for a Vaishnavite, visiting Shiva's Temple is equivalent to getting afflicted with Brahmahathi Dosha!

This was sent to me by a Vaishnavite friend of Mine, I am more ofa Vaishnavite in terms of understanding Their sampraday as I am from Srivilliputtur, and sent a detailed reply quoting the Vedas and Purans.

The gentleman who said so, I was informed grinned sheepishly and told my friend,

"Who is going to read all this?'

I am passing on what is being practiced, it is good for us!'

I have recently posted articles on Siva Stuthi by Krishna and Vishnu Stuthi By Shiva.

Let me quote from Srimad Bhagatham, the greatest Puran among all the Purans as it speaks of the Devotees of Lord Vishnu.

It is the greatest among the Purans as the Devotee is Greater that the God.
