Khodiyar Temple - Rajapara, Hindu temple in Rajapara, Gujarat, India.
The temple stands near Tataniya Wali Lake, featuring a large mandap that houses the idol of Khodiyar Mata and connects to a hilltop shrine through a ropeway.
The temple was established in 1911 by the king of Bhavnagar, following the instructions of the goddess who appeared to Maharaja Wakhatsinghji near Sihor in Rajapara.
Devotees at Khodiyar Temple participate in offering Lapsi, a traditional sweet dish made from broken wheat, as a significant part of their worship rituals.
The temple welcomes visitors from 4 AM to 10 PM daily, with convenient access through regular bus services from major Gujarat cities including Rajkot and Ahmedabad.
The temple honors Khodiyar Mata, a warrior goddess born into the Charan caste around 700 AD, who was one of seven daughters granted by Lord Shiva to Mamad Ji Charan.
