Lord Hatkeshwar Mahadev Temple is in Mahadev Ghat on the banks of the river Kharun which is about 5 kms from Raipur. Lord Shiva is the presiding deity as such it is a highly sacred shrine for the Hindus particularly Shaivaites. The history of the temple is that it was built in 1402 by Hajiraj Naik during the rule of Brahmadeo Rai. He was son of Kalchuri king Ramachandra. There is a monumental script in Sanskrit preserved at the Mahant Ghasidas memorial museum of Brahmdeo Rai period. 29 kms is the road distance from Raipur to Mahadev Ghat where you can plan for night halt. You may hire a cab from Raipur to Mahadev Ghat.
You may also visit Lord Hanuman Mandir here. It is beautiful and attractive. There are other shrines within this temple of Matha and other idols. The idol of lord Hanuman is really pleasing and you will always remember it.
Raipur is an important city in the state of Chhattisgarh
and closely located to NH 6 and 43 connecting city to Vijayanagaram. There is airport in Raipur. The train station is well connected to all important cities in India.
What all you see here as Lord Hatkeshwar is not the original one. The ancient temple of Hatkeshwar which has been referred to in Skandapurana is at Vadnagar village in Gujarat. The legendary story of the idol Shivalinga in Vadnagar village in Gujarat is said to be deep rooted till the bottom of the earth. The Nagar-Brahmin community people worship Lord Hatkeshwar as their ‘Ishta Devtha' (desired god). The temple is classified as a National Heritage considering the artistic carvings inside and outside the temple, which are pleasing festival to your eyes. The beautiful craftsmanship and the stone carving describing the episodes of mythological stories are appealing to everyone. If you want to see the real or original and ancient Hatkeshwar please visit Vadnagar village in Gujarat and have the divine bliss of Lord Shiva.

This temple is dedicated to Lord Shiva. The temple is very beautiful as well as less crowded than the usual ones. The ghat along the temple along the river bank is amazing. A must visit place for spiritual and mental wellbeing.

Popularly known as Mahadev ghat, this place is famous for Hatkeshwar temple. A must visit place for those having faith in the Lord.
During the month of Shrawan, this place remains very crowded. People from local city and nearby villages visit the place on this occasion. Local fairs are added attraction to this.
Recently the water resources department of CG govt has built a suspension bridge named Laxman jhoola near this temple and a beautiful garden, which are center of attraction for all.

I made a quick visit all alone to this Temple two days after Diwali. The place didn't have any crowd amd I was the only person standing in front of the Almighty when I got inside. The Temple is mainatned very nicely and the Shiva Linga is just Magestic. The River Front behind the Temple is also getting developed in a nice way.
