This temple needs no introduction and represents the Spiritual Resistance, India has been through. Personally, there is something about the temple which is unexplainable The temple is grandeur and large with top notch cleanliness. The entrance itself (Digvijay Dwar) is eye catching and marvellous. For Senior Citizens, there is a wheel chair facility (only draw back is you have to push it through). There is a go cart facility for all (ideally it should be exclusively for senior citizens or persons with disabilities) and a lift facility as well. No electronic gadgets are allowed, so better to keep it in vehicle or hotel. Went around 11 on a weekday (not Monday), so found it to be less crowded. Don't miss the platform on which once a Parvati Temple stood, on the backside of the main temple. Do visit after sunset to see the temple and its beauty under lights. Did not see the light and sound show.

Beautiful location and architecture. Its worth a visit. though i am not a religious person, enjoyed visiting this temple for its location and architectural beauty. the sound and light show is also worth seeing, it was quite good. we stopped here on our way to gir.

Somnath Mahadev Temple is a jyotrling dedicated to Lord Shiva, the temple is very well maitained, clean n oderly organised. the moment u enter the vibe of lord shiva are all around. best time to go is early morning or late night for darshans n the famous shayan aarti. the light & lazer show really enhanches the experience.

It is the Best ever place to visit among 12 Jyotirlinga. Management of the organization is perfect. Place is extremely clean and well maintained. There is a quality prasad distributed at very nominal charge. There are lot of stores nearby selling varieties of snacks and sweets. There are ample amount of lodges and hotels to stay there with a medium to good quality of services. There is also one ancient stone kept near to Temple Border, which is pointing to a direction which directly leads you to Antartica. Ancient inscription is also embedded on that stone. This place is worth to visit.

Absolute must visit if one is in or around Somnath. Well planned and organized. Separate kiosks for mobile / footwear storage. Darshan was done in an orderly fashion, no pushing or shoving. Be prepared with some cash for prasad/ offerings inside the temple Outside, the views of the Arabian Sea are mesmerizing.

This is the temple which was plundered by sultan Mahmud od of Ghazani 17 times in 11 century .It is one o the 12 Jyotirlinga and is on the top of the list .Currently there are two temples of Somnath one is old one and another is new one . We visited the old one in the evening . hardly any visitor . We had darshan and was able to touch the Linga .After that we walked out and visited new one . It is huge one and over ceowded. We stood in the queue and slowly moving towards main temple .It is highly decorated with gold . after standing in the line we we had darshan for only 10 seconds The complex is huge one . On the exit one can enjoy the fresh air of Arabian sea . There are shops out side . In the day light there are photographer who helps the visitor to take photograph .As usual like many temples cell phone is prohibited inside .

The Temple is wonderful. When I am gone it's Heavy Rain.Nice place to visit with Family Members.i am very happy to say that I saw One of the Jothi lingam. In this Holi trip only 2things Disappointed me. 1.For Each and Everything inside the Temple is too costly like Puja and prasadam. 2.Their Mobile or camera is not Allowed to take Photos.

Amazing trip to Somnath and Dwarkadish temple from Rajkot. We spent 6 days across these places and Junagarh in Gujrat. It was pure bliss. We used 8780490960 Vijay travel Ashwin Bhai for taxi, they have arranged a very good Innova and Driver was very good as well. Overall a fantastic experience. We have stayed in Lemon tree - Dwarka, Sarovar Portico - Somnath, Fern in Junagarh. Har Har Mahadev ... Jai Dwarkadish !!

Temple is gigantic. Invaders tried to damage it. The sea is very turbulent. My TAXI cab owner driver Alpesh +91 74330 01378 was very nice - enjoyed. Use him if you land at Ahmedabad Rajkot or Jamnagar airport
