Tarkeshwar Nath Temple, Hindu temple in Jaipur district, India.
Tarkeshwar Nath Temple is a Hindu shrine in the Choura Rasta area situated on a green hill and displays traditional Hindu architecture with curved structural forms. The main sanctuary is accompanied by additional shrines for Kali and Lakshmi Narayan and features a gathering space at the entrance.
The sanctuary was built in 1729 and follows the atchala structure, reflecting the architecture of Bengal temples. This building style shapes its appearance to this day.
The temple is dedicated to Lord Shiva in the form of Tarakanatha and draws many worshippers especially during Shivaratri and Gajan festivals. These celebrations shape the religious rhythm and bring the community together.
Visitors should allow time and come early in the morning when the sanctuary is less crowded and the air is cooler. Male visitors must remove their upper garments before entering, so comfortable clothing is practical.
The sacred tank Dudhpukur located north of the main sanctuary is visited by believers who think the water there answers their prayers. It is a quiet spot that invites reflection.
