Visit Somnath temple
Visiting the Somnath temple is one of the main
reasons people visit this temple town in the
state of Gujarat. First of the 12 sacred
Jyotirlings or shrines of Lord Shiva, devotees
flock to this temple from all parts of the
country in order to seek blessings from the lord.
It has a vast and rich history dating back
centuries and it is said that it was destroyed
and rebuilt under the rules of various kings and
dynasties. The latest reconstruction happened in
the 1950s under the influence of Vallabhai Patel.
There are numerous poojas that can be done in the
temple to seek blessings from Lord Shiva like the

Witness the magic of Triveni Sangam
This temple town is also known as the place of
Triveni Sangam - meaning the unison or confluence
of three rivers, namely Kapila, Hiran, and
Sarasvati. There are many temples nestled on the
banks of Triveni Ghat that devotees can visit and
offer prayers at. In Mahabharata, it is said that
the Pandav brothers visited this holy place to
take bath in and ultimately built five Shiva
temples. The three rivers also meet the ocean at
one point which is considered to be a sacred
salvation point for Hindus on their pilgrimage.
