 Lord Shiva Temple This Temple has the Lord Shiva as its main diety. The Shiv Linga (The Statue of Lord Shiva) is made of balast rock, one of the architectural marvel.. |
 |
 The Entrance The bells at the entrance of the Pataleshwar temple are huge in size.These bells remind us of the years when regular prayers were held at regular basis in this temple. |
The Caves Its not a cave in the actual sense but rather it is a Shiva Temple.The carvings on the outer building is of basalt. This black basalt rock has been carved out in the form of a cave with a cube shaped room. It is this room where the lingam (the statue of Shiva) is situated. There is a bell made out of brass which hangs at the entrance of the temple. There at the entrance is the circular arrangment of white stones with Nadi Bull (ride of Lord Shiva) standing there. Inside the temple besides the lingam there are also the beautiufl statues of Lord Rama, his better half Sita, and his brother Laxman. In and Around »The Museum : Just beside the temple there is this museum which finds its place in the GUINNESS BOOK OF WORLD RECORDS. It is because of the single grain of rice that has 5000 characters inscribed on it. The museum holds its own place though it does mon make for major attraction for the visitors.
