Shiv Mandir, Ambarnath, Ancient Hindu temple in Ambarnath, India
The Shiv Mandir temple features intricate stone carvings on its black rock walls, with two Nandi statues guarding the entrance point.
Built in 1060 AD during the Shilahara dynasty, this temple was constructed under King Chhittaraja and later modified by his son Mummuni.
The temple remains an active center of worship, with many devotees gathering during Mahashivratri and Shravani Somvar celebrations throughout the year.
Located 2 kilometers from Ambarnath railway station, the temple can be reached by shared auto-rickshaws that regularly operate from the station.
The temple's underground sanctuary requires visitors to descend twenty steps below the mandapa to reach the central Shivling sacred space.
