- Tapan ROY SARKARMumbai, India64 contributionsShiva temple from 11th century.This ancient shiva temple from 11th century is truly a hidden gem. Situated in Ambernath it is only couple of hours drive from Mumbai. It is also known as the Ambreshwar Shiva Temple. The stone curvings on the temple are simply amazing. Unfortunately, the temple is not maintained properly. We visited the site in an evening. There was hardly any light in the premises. We couldn't see the curvings clearly. The temple compound and the surroundings were not clean. I wish some authorities like ASI to take care of the temple.Visited April 2023Travelled with familyWritten 2 April 2023

This is one the hidden treasures in and around ambernath that's short drive away from mumbai/thane
The temple itself is mesmerizing beautiful with old hemadpanthy building style
The garbh gruh or inner sactorium is deep down like any typical shiva temple
Attended the aarti
That was totally divine experience

The speciality of this temple is it's beautiful architecture, high level of energy during bhakti of Lord Shiva and when you see above the shivling on the roof inside the temple (garbhagrah)during evening aarti,you will notice that moon can be seen exactly on the shivling just as visible on the head of Bholenath.Must visit during evening aarti at around 7:30PM to see the moon view above the shivling. You will definitely praise this ancient architectural mind that how they used geography to identify the moon direction above the temple so that it should exactly appear above the shivling.
Overwhelming experience, must visit place.

I wonder how this beautiful temple was built. Located away from the city the place is very peaceful. I heard the place still gets crowded on some special occasions and festivals. The architecture inside after breathtaking. Held the soul. Do visit it!
