Good Service
Beautiful ancient temple with intricate carvings. The architecture is a blend of Hindu and Islamic styles, making it unique. The peaceful atmosphere is perfect for meditation.
Amazing Service
A very clean temple with crisp architecture. Ample parking. Easy access. Very peaceful and calm ambience. The shiva lingam is on the ground with a vessel dripping water onto it.... Observe the dress code - no shorts, no short skirts, no revealing shirts. Shoes can be kept outside on a rack. Bring a dhoti if in doubt, and tie around your waist.
Average Service
Interesting temple but lacks proper maintenance. The historical significance is evident, but better upkeep and information boards would enhance the visitor experience.
