Pataleshwar Mandir, Hindu temple on Jadhua Road in Hajipur, India
The Pataleshwar Mandir temple lies 40 feet below ground level, with a newer structure constructed above the original eighth-century foundation.
During the exile period of Pandavas, Arjun performed meditation at this location, leading Lord Shiva to establish his presence through a Shivlinga.
The temple contains inscribed stones depicting snake symbols related to Lord Shiva, along with a Nandi statue positioned at the entrance.
The temple receives numerous visitors during Shivratri festival, which occurs on the thirteenth night of Maagha or Phalguna month in Hindu calendar.
Local traditions maintain that the Shivlinga within the temple grows one inch taller each year during the Shivratri celebration.
