Sthaneshwar Mahadev Temple, Hindu temple in Kurukshetra, India
The temple complex contains two separate sections, with Lord Shiva shrine on the right and Lakshmi Narayan shrine on the left side of the structure.
During the Pushyabhuti dynasty, the temple gained prominence as part of King Harshavardhan's empire, with the surrounding town serving as the capital city.
The Sthaneshwar Mahadev Temple holds significance as the location where the Pandavas and Lord Krishna performed prayers before the Mahabharata war commenced.
The temple maintains regular prayer sessions throughout the day, with special ceremonies during Mahashivratri when devotees gather from various regions of northern India.
A water tank near the temple contains water believed to flow from the Yamuna River through an underground passage, considered beneficial for skin conditions.
