How many of us know about this Shiv mandir in Lonad-Maharashtra?
Tucked in between a village,this is a splendour created in Hemadpanthi style by the Shilaharas (8th-13thCE) which, is now in a dilapidated condition.
When will we work on saving our heritage?

The Dwarkadhish temple, also known as the Jagat Mandir and occasionally spelled
Dwarakadheesh, is a Hindu temple dedicated to the god Krishna, who is worshiped here by the name Dwarkadhish, or 'King of Dwarka'. The temple is located at Dwarka, Gujarat, India, one of the destinations of Char Dham, a Hindu pilgrimage circuit. The main shrine of the five-storied building, supported by 72 pillars, is known as Jagat Mandir or Nija Mandir. Archaeological findings suggest it to be 2,000 - 2,200 years old.[1][2][3] The temple was enlarged in the 15th- 16th century.[4][5] The Dwarkadhish Temple is a Pushtimarg temple, hence it follows the guidelines and rituals created by Vallabhacharya and Vitheleshnath.

Made out of artificial rock, Sri Govardhana Kshetra in Basavanagudi is among Bangalore’s unique temples that deserve a visit.
Right from the tunnel that leads into the temple to the deity of God Krishna holding the Govardhana hill, there are quite a few aspects that set this temple apart from the others.
Address - Sri Govardhana Kshetra, 1/3, Bull Temple Rd, opposite BMS Engg College, NR Colony, Basavanagudi.

The base of the Shiva Linga is always submerged in water which portrays the arrival of Ganga to the earth and that the flow is controlled by The Lord himself.

Kashi is eternal.
Excavations in 2014 led to the discovery of artefacts dating back to 800 BCE. Further excavations in the city, unearthed artefacts dating back to 1800 BCE, supporting the view that the area was inhabited by this time.
Varanasi has been a cultural centre of northern India for several thousand years, and is closely associated with the Ganges. People believe that dying here and getting cremated along the banks of the "holy" Ganges river allows one to break the cycle of rebirth and attain salvation, making it a major center for #pilgrimage.

Story of this temple, which was repeatedly damaged and plundered during wars by Mughals will bring tears in your eyes
The Chennakeshava Temple of Belur, was built-in 12th-century on the banks of the Yagachi River
Belur was also an early Hoysala Empire capital.
The temple was meticulously built over 3 generations and took 103 years to finish.......then and now .....it is an epitome of architectural engineering
Respect your culture and heritage before it gets plundered by others.

Harihareshwar Temple
Harihareshwar is a town in Raigad district, in Maharashtra, India. It is surrounded by three hills named Harihareshwar, Harshinachal and Pushpadri. The river Savitri enters the Arabian Sea from the town of Harihareshwar.

This Temple complex has two adjacent temples. The smaller Kalbhairav temple is expected to be visited first, before entering the main Harihareshwar temple housing an ancient Shiva Linga. A pradakshina route goes around the temple, along the sea shore. It is not advisable to go on this route during high tide.

The Anantha Padmanabhaswami Temple is a Hindu temple in the neighbourhood of Adyar in Chennai, India. The temple is located on 2nd Main Road, Gandhi Nagar, near the Fortis Malar Hospital. Dedicated to the Hindu god Vishnu, the temple is named after the Padmanabhaswamy Temple in Thiruvananthapuram and the deity Vishnu is depicted reclining on the mythological five-headed serpent as in the Padmanabhaswamy Temple of Thiruvananthapuram. The temple was constructed in 1962 on land donated by Chithira Thirunal, the last Maharaja of Travancore and caters to Chennai's Malayali community. The temple is constructed in the beautiful Kerala style and is well maintained to this date.
Within the premises of the temple, lie an yagashala for conducting daily sermons. There is also a statue of Chithira Thirunal, the last Maharajah of Travancore unveiled by Lord Erskine, the then Governor of Madras on 29 September 1939 commemorating the Temple Entry Proclamation
