Ancient: Lord Shiv Mandir

Me and my friends visited the Ambarnath Shiv Mandir. This shiv mandir was built in approx 11th century. Interesting fact is how that time they built this beautiful temple without any machineries

Each and every part of the wall is carved with different types of designs. Salute to their accuracy. Every wall is carved in stone.

The god and goddess carved in the stone is lord Vishnu, lord bramha and lord Ganesha. Which improves the appearance of the temple.

According to the history, this beautiful temple was built by the five Pandava brothers (in time of Mahabharata) even in the one single night in a single mass of stone.

Sure, once I have holidays after my exams then I’ll arrange a meet-up here

Yes you are right, this temple is built layer by layer without any other support. Im not taking inside photos because this is prohibited for some reasons
